She just cant seem to understand why what she did is such a big deal!
Rachel Dolezal may have resigned from her position as president of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP but the statement she released seems to suggest that she just doesnt see why people think what she did is such a big deal.
I have always deferred to the state and national NAACP leadership and offer my sincere gratitude for their unwavering support of my leadership through this unexpected firestorm, she wrote.
Yes unexpected. The white woman who spent years portraying herself as black doing so with an elaborate deceptive scheme that included wearing dark makeup, telling people that her adopted black brother was her biological son, claiming that one of her black friends was her biological father, claiming that her biological father was a Marine who was almost murdered three times by white subordinates because they were upset that he was black and held a superior position, saying she would be nervous about attending a Tea Party rally because there would be so many white people there, and even allegedly telling a Hispanic student that she could not participate in a classroom activity on race and culture because she looked too white apparently never could have anticipated getting caught and/or that people would be mad if she did.
Nowhere in the statement did Dolezal apologize for her fraud. Rather, she portrayed herself as more of a victim, even as someone who might deserve credit for the way shes handling the situation:
I have waited in deference while others expressed their feelings, beliefs, confusions [ugh, so unbelievable that anyone would find this confusing!] and even conclusions absent the full story.
Dolezal also bragged about her work a little, saying she was delighted that so many organizations and individuals have supported and collaborated with the Spokane NAACP under my leadership to grow this branch into one of the healthiest in the nation in 5 short months.

Again I put forth, background check of any productive job application (in the real world) he/she has applied will out her lies right away.
Only in academia (remember Ward Churchill), community organized themed entities, and “non-profits” will these losers get away with such fraud.
Very true. And Rachel will be in the front row at the Academy Awards. When the Oscar is announced, the spotlight will shine on her and everyone in the audience will stand and applaud her “courage” to “battle against the odds”.
What she did is a huge deal.
It means we can all be whatever we want to be!
Need affirmative action? Be black today.
It’s just a box to check.
These kooks deny reality...typical leftist mental disorder.
She may be a crazy lib, but Dolezal just exploded the hypocrisy of the Libs over transsexuals.
Dolezal is as legitimately transracial as Jenner is legitimately transsexual (i.e. both of them not at all).
And the problem with that is exactly what?
When Whoopie Goldberg impersonated a white man to sell securities on a hit movie, everybody thought it was way cool.
Substitute male/female for white/black in this article, and everybody in popular culture celebrates it.
Or as Pelousi would say, she’s been liberated from employment.
Another “black” liberated by leftists/democrats.
I'm sure the State Department hasn't filled its transracial quota, and could use someone of her linguistic capabilities.
She has yet to acknowledge that she is a fraud. She instead twists her words like a circus contortionist...
“Unexpected firestorm.” Did she honestly think she was never going to be found out? that right there says a lot about her mental health.
When I was growing up one of my best friends was deaf...Still is by the way...
There is a weird group of people that fall in love with the “deaf culture” and will refuse to interact with hearing people.
Some people just want to be something they aren’t
She exposed something that the left/blacks
DO NOT WANT TALKED ABOUT:
minority grievance privilege.
She changes her race, I change my tagline.
She’s still got her job teaching “Africana Studies”.
The way she plays the victim card, I think she has a valid claim to being ‘culturally’ black.
Can you spell: L O O N E Y ?
