Raquel Evita Saraswati, Activist who claimed Arab, South Asian, Latin descent, outed by her own mom: ‘White as driven snow’
NY POST ^ | February 21, 2023 | By Yaron Steinbuch

The senior inclusion officer of a Philadelphia-based social justice group has been lying about her ethnic identity for years — claiming she is a woman of color despite being “as white as the driven snow,” her mother alleges.

Raquel Evita Saraswati, 39, who was born Rachel Elizabeth Seidel, is the chief equity, inclusion and culture officer of the American Friends Service Committee, which fights “violence, inequality and oppression,” the Intercept reported.

The Muslim activist, who has access to files of the progressive Quaker group’s workers and volunteers, has claimed for years to be of Latin, South Asian and Arab descent.

But her mother, Carol Perone, said Saraswati is actually of British, German and Italian descent.

“I call her Rachel. I don’t know why she’s doing what she’s doing,” Perone told the Intercept. “I’m as white as the driven snow and so is she.”

She added: “I’m German and British, and her father was Calabrese Italian. She’s chosen to live a lie, and I find that very, very sad.”

LOL!

How the Native American population in the US increased 87% says more about whiteness than about demographics

Every white person needs to be doing this.

Destroy the machine.

“This woman is sickening, all the more so in that she took to herself as a surname the name of the Indian Goddess Saraswati, no less. Anyone who has ever paid such imposters money (i.e., given them salaries or honoraria) should sue them in civil court under misrepresentation law and seek punitive damages in addition to everything else they can claim against such creeps.”

“Maa (Mother) Saraswati is a Hindu goddess who represents education, creativity, and music.”

https://carlos.emory.edu/maa-saraswati

“Maa Sarawati chooses not to bear children. She represents singularity, independence, and defiant thought.”

Many people thought my mother was an American Indian.

The ancestors of her Western Asian parents and Native Americans may be geographically linked.

There it is...

The woman obviously has a talent for “reading the room” (society).

In my youth such blacks were considered ‘Oreo cookies’ - black on the outside and white on the inside.

I did...

I was born in America.

But they don’t evaluate my previous choice (”Other” - Human) as favorable, so Native it is... I got more Minneconjou Sioux in me than Fauxcahontas

We here on Free Republic should all take on our own personal identities.

I identify as a Cro-Magnon-Neanderthal lesbian man.

This Jew-ish thing mentioned in the article seems to be a new thing.

Remember, 34% of white students lie about their race on college applications.
