A prominent civil rights activist in Spokane, Washington, has been lying for years by portraying herself as black when she's really a white woman, according to some of her family members.

Rachel Dolezal, 37, president of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP, declined to directly answer questions Thursday about allegations she's lied about her racial background.

For years, she's described herself in application materials as a mix of white, black and Native American heritage, news reports say.

She's filed numerous complaints with the police, claiming she's been a victim of racial harassment.

Dolezal is also chair of the city's Office of Police Ombudsman Commission, and an adjunct professor at Eastern Washington University. The mayor and the city council president said Thursday they were gathering facts to determine if any policies were violated in her city appointment, KXLY-TV reported.

Asked directly this week if she is black, Dolezal said that question carried a lot of "complexities," then added: "We're all from the African continent," The Spokesman-Review reported.

Maybe she just had too many pancakes when she was a kid.

And thought her mama was black.

I think everyone needs to declare themselves black/African American. It will overwhelm the system. Need to fight back Alinsky-style.

People bashing #RachelDolezal’s self-definition as a black woman are bigots. Race is a social construct. #CaitlynJenner

So, how many of the unsolvable, well-publicized, hate crimes against Rachel Dolezal were staged?

This sounds like a similar situation by my old stomping grounds in Rockland Cty, NY. There’s a group of people who live in the mountains along the NJ-NY state line known as “Jackson Whites”, descendants of the Ramapo Indians. They’re petitioning the gov’t for “Native American” status so they can build a casino, by the site of the old Ford plant in Mahwah. But the gov’t denied their petition because they have “too much” Black and Caucasian ancestry, many of them also descended from runaway slaves and interracial families. Maybe they need to assert their Native Americanness, by emphatically demanding they THINK they are full blooded American Indians. Hey, Bruce demands to be called Kaitlyn, who are we to argue?
