Spokane NAACP president is White Woman faking she's Black, her mother says

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.

However when polled 80% couldn’t say who the President of Africa is

So now we have transsexual, transpecies, transabled, and today we have trans-racial.
Can't comment on gender, or someone somewhere will be "offended." Can't comment on what species a person is, because some half man - half animal will be offended. Can't comment on abilities, because someone who cut off a body part may get offended.
Too bad for the liberals with this one. If we comment on race, someone somewhere who is one race living in another races body will be offended.

Welcome to the Lefts vision of utopia, folks. There's self created Frankensteins everywhere!

Marriage no longer means what it used to.

Gender no longer means what it used to.

And now, evidently, ethnicity no longer means what it used to.

I used to work with a woman who had as much African blood in her as a polar bear does, but she had curly hair and big lips and a lot of people thought she was black.

Her parents were multi multi millionaires. Yet she got internship as an African American. Good for her I thought.

Figures. Is she in a Grievance Department? The academy is filled with charlatans, phonies, and liars, and they know their own.

If I remember correctly, Rush(?) was interviewing a trans-species man. Inside, he believed he was a dog, but was trapped in a mans body.
Beck was talking about the trans-abeled movement now starting to show up. These are disabled people trapped in able bodies, and they're cutting off their own arms, legs, etc. (because doctors won't do it for them) to be "who they really are."

This country needs an exorcism!

“Perhaps she “identifies” as black.”

At six four and around 255 pounds I have long identified as an Eagle but for some damned stupid reason I can’t seem to fly by flapping my arms.

Has anyone explained to him that if colored is racist then white must also be racist?

The late singer songwriter Phoebe Snow,who was Jewish,was called black in magazine articles back in the day. She said she just laughed about it all.

Yeah, I heard the dog guy on Rush.

I don't know if he as serious, Rush just let him go on to demonstrate the absurd with absurdity.
