Did NAACP president lie about her race? City investigates
KXLY ^ | 06/11/15 | Jeff Humphrey

Posted on 06/12/2015 6:04:10 PM PDT by Enlightened1

The City of Spokane announced Thursday it's investigating whether the president of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP violated the city's code of ethics in her application to serve on the citizen police ombudsman commission.

Rachel Dolezal serves as chair of the independent commission, in addition to her work as an adjunct faculty member at Eastern Washington University and president of the NAACP local chapter. On her application to serve on the commission, she identified herself as African-American. But public records, including Dolezal's own birth certificate, list her biological parents as Ruthanne and Lawrence Dolezal of Montana. The Dolezals told KXLY Thursday that Rachel is their biological daughter and that they are both white.

On the NAACP Spokane Facebook page, a picture was posted earlier this year showing Dolezal and an African-American man. In the post, he's identified as Dolezal's father. KXLY4's Jeff Humphrey asked Dolezal about that claim Wednesday afternoon.

"Ma'am, I was wondering if your dad really is an African-American man," Humphrey asked.

"I don't understand the question," Dolezal answered. "I did tell you [that man in the picture] is my dad." "Are your parents white?" Humphrey asked. At that point, Dolezal removed the microphone, ended the interview and walked away.

LOL! You cannot make this stuff up.

Leftist are going PSYCHO on this issue.

They say even though both Rachel Dolezal parents are both white, because Rachel says lied and said she was black, then that means she is "Trans-racial".

Therefore, if you call Racel a liar, fraud, etc.... since she says she is black it's because YOU are really a "Trans-racist" according to the looney Leftist.

So maybe I should say I am a Bullfrog or I am an Eagle.

Does that really make me a Bullfrog or Eagle according to the radical Leftist???

Why is the city investigating?

Does it violate a city ordinance to pretend you have a different skin tone? Are tanning beds illegal?

She is on some kind of committee representing citizens with the police. I don’t know if it is a paid position

On Anderson Cooper one talking head suggested she is mentally ill. Whatever, she lies like a con artist. Kelly file just showed a lip where she was asked if she is African American and she said she doesn’t understand the questions - and she teaches in college.

She was appointed to a position on a city board after lying about her race on the application for it. If not illegal. that’s at least unethical. They’re looking it as an ethics violation, not a criminal charge.

Her ‘true’ race is really irrelevant. What’s important that she should be able to be whatever she feels like. That’s what the left have been screaming about Jenner for the last several months. Can’t have it both ways.

It wasn't a lie - when she filled out the application, she felt Black.

You watch, this will be her defense.

Another thought - did the City JUST NOTICE she was White? She filled out the application as a Black person, and so nobody questioned it?

What are City employees saying now? “Hey, wait a minute, you don’t look Black”?
