Not that long ago transgender and homosexuality was listed as a mrntsl illness in the DSM 4Do you have the scientific evidence to say that she does not "feel" black. Also I use the term "feel" for lack of a better word that I myself would describe it. I fully understand me feeling sad is not the same "feeling" a Trans individual would have about the sex they identify with. I just don't get how you can be so progressive in your thinking but be so transracialphobic. Just because we don't have the science today to show that what she "feels" is an expression of her genes doesn't mean we won't in a few years from now once more research is conducted. To write her off as mentally ill is just as insulting as it is to say a Transgendered woman is mentally ill. I'm very surprised at you sir. Just like the medical community once said Transgendered individuals were mentally ill, now that more research has been conductive and society has become more accepting they are no longer considered mentally ill.
This is too bad. All of her good work and changes she helped create comes down to if you're "black enough". I don't condone her lying about her ethnic group;but I do sneer at the social system who still sticks with the One Drop of nigger theories. If she claimed to be white could she have ever made it to the higher ranks of the NAACP? Or would blacks just dissmiss her because she doesn't truly understand our struggle as a white woman?
There are other local Naacp leaders around the country that are white. There's even stories saying she told her brothers they better not out her as white. She also taught from a book 'how to be black'.This is too bad. All of her good work and changes she helped create comes down to if you're "black enough".

Would her marriage to a black man be celebrated or would we discount it as just another white bitch stealing a good black man?
I get why she lied and I'm ashamed that she felt it was necessary to do so.
So. I'm red dot Indian until I change my weave. I don't find cows especially interesting but I do like the Happy Cow California commercialsThere are other local Naacp leaders around the country that are white.

Have you had any interactions with this ma'am? We're you the one committing the hate crimes against her?I live in Spokane. I volunteer next door to and spend time in the building the NAACP office is in here. That's all imma say about that. At least when I say I live in Spokane people will go, ok, I know where that is vs up until a week ago people would be like HUH SPO-WHAT?
I have not. And no, I was not but heard a lot about it and was down there during support protests after the fact. The day the story broke I saw her picture plastered everywhere on twitter and was like oh shit did something happen to her, I thought maybe she got attacked or something but then I was like oh for crying out loud. It's such a circus. I'm actually going down there this afternoon to my volunteer gig, will see what the happs are, supposedly today was the meeting, but she canceled it but people were still going to come. Hopefully no drams once I get there, I'm too tired to deal today haHave you had any interactions with this ma'am? We're you the one committing the hate crimes against her?
How racially varied is that chapter of the naacp? Do you see a variety of ethnic groups working there?I have not.

Making it harder and harder to defend her. Damn woman is a complete fraud in every part of her lying lifeAnddddd now she's an alleged artistic plagerist. It's the story that keeps on giving!
Rachel Dolezal's Artwork Is Not Only Problematic, It Might Be PlagiarizedGot a link to the plagerist stuff? Was she selling art and making money from it?
I don't know how I feel about this. I can copy any of Picasso' pieces of work, even did as a child at school(everyone in class did), but as long as I don't try to pass that off as my work(It wouldn't work, trust me) or try to sell it for money, then is it really plagiarism? She still painted it, it's her work, there is skill involved in that. It is different for written pieces, as then you are just copy and pasting, there is no skill involved in typing/writing words if you are copying, but that isn't the case for painting. So as long as you aren't passing it off as someone else's work, then there isn't really a problem?
She's passed it off as her work without even mentioning the original artist. That's an issue, especially when she's an art major and a college professor. On top of her other craziness.I don't know how I feel about this.

She did good stuff, but does it take away from it because she lied? And more lies seem to he coming out.I adore Abdul-Jabbar and agree with him
