Too funny....'black' NAACP leader outed as white

[Maxx]

I don't see how any if this really matters at all.​

Given the dishonesty and hypocrisy of the racial activist groups currently preying on our culture, I would say it does matter.

It matters to the City of Spokane because she lied on her application for employment as she did with Eastern Washington University and another college in Idaho.

It's for them to deal with.

Now to you, honesty and character doesn't seem to matter, so it's all good for you.

The strange allure of victimhood.

Bingo.

It's deeply ingrained in our culture now.

The reason the NAACP is supporting the bitch is if they didn't they'd look like a bunch of fucking stuuuupid negroes who were taken in by a fucking racist nut-case. Wait a minute!

Maybe a white girl got the job because the atlernative was a middle aged woman who looked like Maxine Waters?

you would think that even the blacks who have seen her speak would of figured out that she wasnt black? god, the make-up jobs alone was a dead give-away. must of been the kind of make-up that didnt melt when the temp reached 85 degrees.

Why whould a decent looking girl purposefully turn herself into a knappy-headed skank?

When whites want to be black, black must be pretty special. Ah, the privileged race.

When asked by a reporter if she was African American, she said she didn't understand the question.

Special, as in the power of victimhood.

The blacks are so privileged, ...they get all the slums in every city in America. Even the president is black, and you cans see how respected he is by the white GOP.

And every single one of those"slums" were new construction at one time.
Are you telling me that gangs of white kids would ride through in the middle of the night and trash those neighborhoods?
Or could it be the residents of the slums that made it that way?

Bigots love to demonize.

This is too funny.....

The white NAACP leader who misrepresented herself as black reportedly said as she organized groups during the Black Lives Matter movement that only black people should be directing and leading the protests.

In an interview with Anderson Cooper, activist and writer Marc Lamont Hill said he knew Rachel Dolezal, and heard her state that only black people should lead the movement that arose in the wake of repeated incidents of police brutality against black individuals starting late last year.

Why whould a decent looking girl purposefully turn herself into a knappy-headed skank?

Why does a Muslim look upon the beauty of a woman with bigotry?

 

[Mac1958]

The spin for this lady is pretty funny.

Pretend Black Lives Matter!

I know, right? I still don't get the point of this thread.

Are you guys on the left high or something ?

I would have to go back and read each post, but I don't believe there was ever a claim here that only blacks can belong to the NAACP. If there is that claim it was probably only from one poster.
Please stop insinuating that we are uneducated, or unaware of who is eligible to belong to this organization.

The "point" you are seeking, is simply that we have an official in a leadership role who is going beyond simply trying to make herself physically appear to be black, but she's also "claiming" she is black, and
serves as chair of Spokane's independent police ombudsman commission, and identified herself as white, African-American and Native American when applying for the job.
She's also filed police complaints of racial discrimination, most recently that she received hate mail.

It appears that the left simply could care less about this story. Very puzzling.

So some woman puts fantasy into her identity. Who gives a shit? John Boehner runs around with the same color; it's got nothing to do with his job. Now if she's been reporting fabricated threats, that's a problem and should be dealt with -- but again, it's got nothing to do with the color of her skin.

As for ombudsmen and applications, I still have yet to see one. I do see a lot of wags running around with assumptions like they did with the Elizabeth Warren myth; I don't see any more of an informed source than "Weasel Zippers". Nor do I see the woman in question specifically claiming to be racially African -- again, a lot of assumptions.

As for the claim that only blacks can join the NAACP, somebody here recently -- I thought it was you actually --- strongly implied that in being perceived as black, this woman "brought shame" on the NAACP. So I simply inquired how that works. Any insinuation of "uneducated" would be on your end. If they DID require hires to be black (if they could even do that), then I could see your implied case of fraud. But since they don't -- I can't. Which leaves me back where I started -- if that's not it, what's the point here?

Show me where I implied that only blacks can be NAACP members.

My, you've got a short memory. This was only a few hours ago:

She has harmed the NAACP and made a mockery of herself

-- you even responded when I specifically asked about it.

Pass that doob, pal...

Huh ? Where in that comment do I make the claim a person must be black ? Put down the bong please.

Hey, you asked where your own implication was after spacing out on your own words, so I re-quoted it. Ain't rocket surgery.

Gonna ask a third time now?

OK that made as much grammatical sense as a bowl of Alpha-Bits, but no, identifying with a race other than the one you were born with doesn't matter.

I mean black people have been forced to do that for centuries.

So to clarify, you are in the transracialism camp? Meaning that like gender, race is a social construct where you can identify with a race other than your birth race?

ie. be a black person in a white person's body, like a woman can be "trapped" in a man's body

It beats me why some of y'all are so hung up on skin color. It's clear to me that when she identifies as "black" it means "black - the cultural term". Again, so what? Jimmie Rodgers did that when he started the genre of "country music". So did Elvis with his physical moves and enunciations. So do (white) sports players with "high fives". On and on. It's all part of the human goulash. Native Americans were shipped off to schools to learn "whiteness" -- involuntarily. And they were hardly unique in that predicament.

Now if there were such a thing as a transracial surgery, that would be silly. But again -- if somebody were to voluntarily choose that route, it's not my business.

This thread makes about as much sense as the Bruce Jenner threads. Let people run their own lives already.

It's not that we are "hung up" on skin color, as you put it.
We are however "hung up" on honesty and character. In the future, you and others on the left should consider exploring that apparent foreign final frontier of the left.

That's ironic (again) because after at least three posters floated out the E. Warren myth, when I threw the challenge flag the only link I got was from a right-wing blog made up to look like a fake Wikipedia page -- and even that didn't make the point the poster claimed it did.

So yes, by all means tell me about this "honesty and character".

She's in a leadership position, that makes her honesty and character very important.

As far as Warren, from other articles I've read, it appears she used family stories and lore as her guide for claims of her native blood.

So......... what's your point?

 

[Pogo]

Who does it say the most about, her or the members/followers, that she would have more perceived insight by appearing/posing as black??

How do we know that's the reasoning in the first place?

Everything has selfish reasons.

In her case I see someone, for most of her life, was as white as white can be.
Her "identifying as black" doesn't wash with me.
She started dating, and eventually married, black men. So she may Relate to blacks.....not identify.
She sees a chance to get behind a podium and lecture on the plight of the black race.
Ain't no lilly-white girl gonna have any credibility....no authority on the subject, so she makes herself look more black.

Uuhh.... She is a professor at a university in AA studies. An expert in her field. She has all the credibility she needs. You do realize there are white people that major in such things, teach as professors and are experts like she is in AA studies right?

As if, ESPECIALLY, you would give a white professor in that field any credence

Ding ! Ding ! Ding !!

Exactly, Ascleepee would be the first one to his feet in the room ridiculing an instructor of black anything if they haven't lived the part. Especially if the instructor were a white male, and it wouldn't matter how versed they were in the study.

Due to his attitude here, you have to believe there are plenty other black folk that would never fully respect anyone other than a person of color who was teaching the subject.
It's absolutely a walking the walk along with the talk that his kind would only have ears for.

Again, you're still working on an assumption. Nobody's established that this woman emulates blackness for that purpose or as a result of that reasoning.

It's hard to believe this goofy-ass thread is still going.
