Took a lot longer for Bruce Jenner to switch from male to female, can see why this bozo Dolezal could change from black to white in less than 30 seconds. Isn’t science grand.

You don’t have to be black to be a leader in the NAACP. The NAACP came out and said as much the same day the news came out. She wasn’t forced to step down (at least not officially).

“Much as I disagree with it (as it now exists) I believe she was 100% sincere in her efforts to help the NAACP cause...”

I don’t know about that, do you commit fake hate crimes if you are sincere about the cause?

She was making $150K or so I read.

Funny thing is (depending on your sense of humor) no one anywhere is going to hire her except maybe as a moderately upscale hooker, and even that won’t last long.

I believe that the control of the NAACP by a predominantly White Board of Directors lasted for the first 50 years--or thereabouts--of the organization.

I believe that the criteria for leadership has been support for confrontation between the races, rather than particular ethnic makeup. But I will admit that I have never actually seen or examined the key documents.

I don’t know what a fake hate crime is or could be since I don’t know what a real hate crime is. Maybe I’m naive, I think she just happened to identify with Black folks and was sincere in her desire to lead her local chapter. No more, no less.

Hmm, having “Quarles” in your name is like a 99% predictor of legitimate African heritage, no?

This woman has mental health issues, to put it politely.

She's a f*cking liberal loonie bin, to be impertinent.

Life is hard enough without compounding its many difficulties by being stupid.

Is it true that her parents adopted 4 black children? If so she would have been raised in a predominately black household. She attended Howard University, a black College.

So what?

As a child, I idolized Willy Mays, the Harlem Globetrotters, memorized Bill Cosby routines, and even sat in the same classroom with a Black student - does that entitle me to claim at least partial Afro-American status? Do I get extra points for frizzing my hair?

Regards,

Which American President are you talking about? Bill Clinton?

Well, in one instance, she claimed she was mailed some threatening, racist hate mail. Problem was, the mail had no postage or postmark and the post office had no record of delivering it. It just magically appeared in the mailbox that she had the only key to. There were several suspicious incidents like that. I think in one instance, the security cameras were turned off right before the “hate crime” happened, so there was no video footage of the “perp”, and of course, she had access to the security camera system as well.

I suppose she could still have been committing those fake crimes, and in her own mind, thought she was “helping the cause”. Sincere but misguided maybe.

I feel bad for her, I don’t think she meant to harm anyone.

Yeah, I didn't mean to harm anyone either when I assumed a false identity (viz. stole someone's Social Security number), obtained (but did not repay) student loans using someone else's name (thus ruining their credit score), and applied for and got funding (grants, scholarships) based upon a fictitious military history and modified racial background.

Do you feel sorry for me, too?

Regards,

English, maybe Welsh. I have very white relatives in South Carolina with that as a family name, they go back to before the Revolutionary War.

A mix from the beginning. Seemed as though all my high school teachers that were Jewish circa 1961 were all loud and proud NAACP members.

Her birth certificate clearly shows she’s a liar and she paid the consequences. Now the poser occupying the White House should do likewise, and repay the billions he and his freeloading family have spent on their perpetual vacation.

Why do you have to be black in the first place? I know the CP means colored people, but unless your bylaws state that the leader *Must* be black (which is racist) there is no reason why someone who self identifies as a black person shouldn’t be their leader.

Wow. You totally don't understand the black mentality. "If you ain't black, you ain't ......."
