I haven’t seen anything reported indicating that she has any black ancestry at all. Is 0% ancestry sufficient to self-identify as being black? For leftists, I suppose it is — can’t let the truth get in the way of the agenda.

Why not? If racial designations were sane, I would think one would have to be over 50% descendent of slaves (that's not all blacks) to even be able to make victimhood claims. It's the whole concept that's flawed. The concern shouldn't be, and it never should've been, victimhood of ancestors. The claim should be for EQUAL opportunity, level playing field, with no consideration of background.

If Bruce Jenner can be a woman, I'd think we can be what we want to be.

The world has gone insane.
