During a segment on #BlackLivesMatters activist Shaun King and the allegation he isn’t black at all, CNN host Don Lemon revealed that he had spoken to a family member of King’s who confirmed he was white.
“A family member tells CNN that both of King’s parents are white,”Lemon said on Wednesday night’s edition of CNN Tonight.
Conservative websites have also accused King of embellishing or fabricating a racial hate crime during his high school days. The same family member told Lemon that the altercation he had in high school was racially motivated… but because King was “a white guy dating a black girl.”
Lemon also revealed that he had a conversation with King about his racial identity. “Initially he did not answer but later referred to himself as biracial,” he said. “But then when I asked him if that’s what it shows on his birth certificate I did not hear back from him. No answer on that.”
He should have to pay back his Oprah scholarship
Vitiligo!
would love to see Oppra actual sue this bozo in court for lying to get a scholarship.I hate the idea of race based scholarship but I would love to see him squirm when questioned by a competent lawyer.
Yep. Found that out yesterday. Where did he go to seminary? LOL!
They ALL do! They're just ACORN operating under an assumed identity.
The same family member told Lemon that the altercation he had in high school was racially motivated... but because King was "a white guy dating a black girl."And apparently the real reason for the altercation was a CD King had borrowed.
It just goes to show that “n****r” is a state of mind.
Once you go black, and get caught, you should be forced to go back.
Publicly. Contrite apology on major media, plus full disclosure of motivation.
This would result in public admissions by white liberal SJWs that black victimhood is where the biggest money is, i.e. black privilege.
He and Rachel Dolezal ought to get together. They’d be the first openly transracial couple.
What would their kid be?
Damn confused.
That has to be post of the day!!!
Ah memories of my youth (1960) when the most provocative movie was I PASSED FOR WHITE!

Hows about a sequel, WE PASSED FOR BLACK!
Thanks.
And there it is. If a black man wants to milk the system, the possibilities are endless. Concessions. Low interest loans. Points added to med school entrance exams. They’ve extorted trillions from us, and there’s no let up in sight.
Lowlife white getting high on being a black victim... disgusting.
We keep hearing about “white privilege.” You’d think that if there were such a thing, you’d seeing prominent examples of blacks trying to pass as whites to get ahead instead of the reverse. In the past couple of weeks alone we’ve had Shaun King and Rachel Dolezal, the last well-publicized example of a famous black trying to pass as white that I can think of is critic/writer Anton Broyard, and that was decades back.
Breitbart News published the 35-year-old activist’s birth certificate. The form listed King’s parents, both of whom are white.
