The author seems to take the position that all blacks are owed something by all whites, making Rachel Dolezal's imposture not simply high comedy, but some sort of offense to the "black community."

I consider this absurd and unworthy of a First Things contributor.

Let’s all don black face and post the pictures here as a tribute to Rachel.

Somebody...PLEASE...
ANYBODY...please call Racheal “NIGGER!”

Now, today and at your first opportunity.

Good-NESS...make her respond to the epithet of NIGGER...now...today.

I was born a poor black child.

Is this dumb ass doing a remake of the jerk?

[Da Coyote]

Sorry, bub, but the whites that you fool are special...they are liberals.

Those of us with real jobs and real experience know exactly what you...and they...are.

Thankfully, we also know honest, moral, and intelligent blacks.

Obviously, you and your ilk are not in that group.

There is only one way out of this for Rachel.

Change her name to Tyrese and become a black man.

What point most people miss is that orgs. like the NAACP have long outlived their usefulness. In the days when blacks were barred from many mainstream orgs., professions, and occasionally subjected to overt racism, the NAACP was needed.

But overt racism against blacks is so rare today they had to invent institutional racism and disparate impact to find new reasons to exist. Dolezel is a deluded fool, but so is everybody else who expects orgs. like the NAACP to do anything positive for blacks whether their leaders are black or white.

Pinky is a 1949 "film is about a light-skinned African-American nursing student, played by Crain, passing for white. Pinky was released by Twentieth Century Fox to both critical acclaim and controversy." [widipedia.org]

There was a movie in 1960 called I PASSED FOR WHITE. The actress was obviously white but she was outted for being half black. Does that mean Obama passed for white?

Langston is so dumb that he doesn’t realize the joke is on him and his fellow Blacks who continue to be obsessed with their race and fool themselves into thinking that the worst of them are the best of them. Ironic and sad that an “iconic poet” turns out to be so stupid and shallow.
