MSNBC Host Weighs in On Rachel Dolezal With a ‘Stupid’ Remark That’s Backfiring Big Time [Video]

On Saturday, MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry shared her thoughts about the Rachel Dolezal story with one of her guests.

Perry said:

“But is it possible that she might actually be black? The best way that I know how to describe this and I want to be very careful here. Because I don’t want to say it’s equivalent to the transgender experience.

But there is a useful language in trans and cis, which is to just to say some of us are born cis-gendered, some of us are born trans-gendered. But I wonder can it be that one would be cis-black and trans-black, that there is actually a different category of blackness, about the achievement of blackness, despite one’s parentage.”

I hope this woman gets the help she needs. She has issues on many, many levels.

Never, never trust anyone with a hyphenated last name. Particularly “if they’s” be Black, or a judge! And add another “never” “if they’s be” BOTH Black AND a judge!

From how I understand genetics, geneticists can’t tell a person’s race just by looking at genes and chromosomes. So race ends up being more of a cultural construct than biology. But you can tell gender right away genetically. So if that is true, Rachel Dolezal can actually claim anything she wants, and she has a better case than Bruce Jenner does.

Could it be that Melissa Harris Perry is Caucasian?

If we all descend from Eve (whose remains were found in Africa) one can argue that we are all black to some degree or another.
