Rachel Dolezal Resigns From NAACP
[guest post by Dana]
According to a letter posted by Rachel Dolezal on the NAACP Spokane Facebook page, she has resigned from her position as president of the Spokane chapter:
It is a true honor to serve in the racial and social justice movement here in Spokane and across the nation. Many issues face us now that drive at the theme of urgency. Police brutality, biased curriculum in schools, economic disenfranchisement, health inequities, and a lack of pro-justice political representation are among the concerns at the forefront of the current administration of the Spokane NAACP. And yet, the dialogue has unexpectedly shifted internationally to my personal identity in the context of defining race and ethnicity.
I have waited in deference while others expressed their feelings, beliefs, confusions and even conclusions – absent the full story.
[…]
I am consistently committed to empowering marginalized voices and believe that many individuals have been heard in the last hours and days that would not otherwise have had a platform to weigh in on this important discussion. Additionally, 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.
While challenging the construct of race is at the core of evolving human consciousness, we can NOT afford to lose sight of the five Game Changers (Criminal Justice & Public Safety, Health & Healthcare, Education, Economic Sustainability, and Voting Rights & Political Representation) that affect millions, often with a life or death outcome.
And so forth…
This afternoon, Dolezal tweeted:
I am just like Rosa Parks. I will strive to become better than Rosa Parks. #TransracialLivesMatter
And ironically, it is being reported that while studying at Howard University, Dolezal once sued the college for discrimination:
Dolezal sued Howard University in 2002 for discriminating against her for being white. She claimed retaliation based on her race, gender, pregnancy and family responsibilities, saying she had been denied teaching positions and scholarship aid. She also complained that some of her artwork had been removed from an exhibition because black students were being favored. A judge, and subsequently an appeals court, found no basis for her claims.

Dana (86e864) — 6/15/2015 @ 5:08 pmThe best person the Spokane chapter could find was a fraud in several senses, such as faking a hate crime. But, unfortunately, the best person for the job was a white person. Hard to square that with….various things.

And I want it to turn black
No grey eyes for me
A man should turn them black
I see Beyonce walk by
And she looks really hot
I’ll go get me some silicone
So I can have her butt
The lady is a parody.

nk (9faaca) — 6/15/2015 @ 5:18 pmnot making this up – National Soros Radio actually has a story they titled
The Rachel Dolezal Case Challenges The Definition Of Race
happyfeet (831175) — 6/15/2015 @ 5:21 pmfeets- do you listen to National Soros Radio to impress your colleagues at work or what? It ain’t healthy. It just ain’t.
elissa (41a9a3) — 6/15/2015 @ 5:28 pmAll is proceeding according to plan. Rachel Dolezal is going to singlehandedly end apartheit in America once and for all.
Soon the Democrats will start the National Blood Registry in order to codify by law who is or is not an authentic black.
Then we have those dirty racists right where we want them.
papertiger (c2d6da) — 6/15/2015 @ 5:52 pmIf you read her Twitter feed, you can tell that she is not mentally well. It’s sad.
Simon Jester (a73d32) — 6/15/2015 @ 6:07 pmNo need to read her Twitter feed, just look at her head.
ropelight (ccab1e) — 6/15/2015 @ 6:16 pmPaint Her Black… the Strolling Bones
I see teh white girl and she thinks her skin is black
No freckles anymore, she wants them to turn black
I see Ms. Dolezal play her grifter game
just another lefty bi+ch to me they’re all the same
She sees a line of cameras they’re all painted black
She lost her job and cred, both never to come back
She sees people laugh and point she quickly looks away
Told her lies with her you know it happened ev’ryday
She looks up at the bench and sees the judge is black
Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 6/15/2015 @ 6:41 pmshe sees her cell door and she sees it’s painted black
Maybe now she’ll fade away and not have to face the facts
It’s not easy doin’ time when your cell mate is black
But think if she were a double agent, so to speak. Mom and Dad didn’t “out her”. They were in on the gag.
papertiger (c2d6da) — 6/15/2015 @ 6:50 pmThe Box Under Bill & Hillary’s Bed…..
When Bill and Hillary first got married Bill said, “I am putting a box under the bed. You must promise never to look in it.”
In all their 30 years of marriage, Hillary never looked.
On the afternoon of their 30th anniversary,
curiosity got the best of her and she lifted the lid and peeked
inside.
In the box were 3 empty beer cans and $8,874.25 in cash.
She closed the box and put it back under the bed.
Now that she knew what was in the box, she was doubly curious as to why there even was such a box with such contents.
That evening, they were out for a special anniversary dinner. After dinner, Hillary could no longer contain her curiosity and she confessed,
saying,”I am so sorry, Bill. For all these years, I kept my promise and never looked into the box under our bed.
However, today the temptation was too much and I gave in.
But now I need to know, why do you keep the 3 beer cans in the box?” Bill thought for a while and said, “I guess after all these years you deserve to know the truth.
Whenever I was unfaithful to you, I put an empty beer can in the box under the bed to remind myself not to do it again.”
Hillary was shocked, but said, “Hmmm, Jennifer, Paula and
Monica. I am very disappointed and saddened by your behavior. However, since you are addicted to sex I guess it does happen and I guess 3 times is not that bad considering your problem.”
Bill thanked her for being so understanding.
Colonel Haiku (2601c0) — 6/15/2015 @ 7:10 pmThey hugged and made their peace.
A little while later Hillary asked Bill, “So why do you have all that money in the box?” Bill answered: “Well, whenever the box filled up with empty cans, I took them to the recycling center and redeemed them for cash.”

I believe you’re on to something. My pet conspiracy theory is that it’s all mean white girl’s revenge.
She believes Howard discriminated against her because she was White. So, she sues Howard for discrimination. She gets humiliated when the court not only threw her case out, but made her pay Howard almost $1,000 for vexatious/obstructionist litigation tactics. So she thinks, I’ll show those racist bastards, I’ll become Black, teach Black Studies and Black Art, get elected president of the local NAACP and then – – Hello, I’m White.
If so, well played!
[Hey, it would have made a great story line for “Revenge,” if it hadn’t been cancelled.]
Walter Cronanty (f48cd5) — 6/15/2015 @ 7:16 pmOne embarrassing issue is that the best person for the job Spokane could find was white.
Richard Aubrey (f6d8de) — 6/15/2015 @ 7:35 pmpapertiger – my thoughts exactly.

nk (9faaca) — 6/15/2015 @ 7:56 pm🙂 🙂 🙂
elissa (41a9a3) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:03 pmThat’s a good one Colonel.
Gazzer (be559b) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:03 pmelissa would appear to confirm that.
Gazzer (be559b) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:04 pmThe NAACP as well as others have reiterated that color doesn’t matter in the organization. They will appoint and elect officials based on other issues, but not race. And, as we are now being instructed, ethnicity and race are simply social constructs. If all of this is so, then why did Dolezal feel he need to resign her position and/or why was she “encouraged” to do so? Why would the fraud matter, because if there are no longer any rules, then what difference does it make?
Dana (86e864) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:05 pmAnd it looks like she is out of her job at Eastern Washington University too. Would you believe that it turns out she was never a “professor” there, just an adjunct instructor who taught a few classes? Her contract ended at the end of last week and apparently is not going to be renewed.
JVW (8278a3) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:10 pmWhy, JVW? Just because she is following the new playbook: no rules, no constraints, no assignments of any kind?
Dana (86e864) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:11 pmPoor Rosa Parks Dolezal got on the wrong bus I guess.
elissa (41a9a3) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:15 pmI’m getting dizzy from how fast race went back to being an issue, not only with the NAACP but also with the supposedly color blind university.
They should call it a color blink university.
papertiger (c2d6da) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:16 pmMSNBC’s Eric Michael Dyson is now claiming that Dolezal is more black than a “conservative” like Clarence Thomas. So now we know what the litmus test is.
Dana (86e864) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:19 pmDana, the NAACP has to say that in public. However, behind closed doors they are hearing from real black folk who are not taking kindly to an interloper usurping the perpetual victimhood that they have worked so long and hard to, well, perpetuate.
Gazzer (be559b) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:22 pmBut of course, Gazzer.
It’s just fun to point that out by asking pointed questions. However, I’m sure we’re not supposed to ask the questions, let alone answer them.
Dana (86e864) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:24 pmSo, if Rachel commits suicide will it be a hate crime?
Gazzer (be559b) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:24 pmOh, I knew what you were doing Dana.
Gazzer (be559b) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:25 pmI checked out Rachel Dolezal’s profile at ratemyprofessors.com. They are fairly average. What strikes me is that a few students allege that the course is difficult and the requirements strict, though another reviewer (who liked Dolezal’s class) says that if you show up and participate you are pretty much guaranteed a good grade. Interestingly enough, Dolezal apparently also taught Art and Art History at a community college in Idaho, and her instructor ratings are no better in that discipline than they are in African Studies.
JVW (8278a3) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:43 pmHer artwork is fake too. Rachel Dolezal’s painting The Shape of Our Kind is a near duplicate of J.M.W. Turner’s 1840 The Slave Ship.
We prolly need to quit piling on, though. She crazy.

elissa (41a9a3) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:46 pmelissa I said that to my wife this morning. She is either very conniving or as nutty as Jenner. My money is on the latter. They both need help.
Gazzer (be559b) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:48 pmAm not so sure that is her Twitter feed. It reads exactly like a parody account, doesn’t it?
The alternative is megalomaniacal levels of narcissism and lack of self awareness. (Well….)
no one of consequence (444633) — 6/15/2015 @ 8:55 pmDelighted to see this plagiarism coming to light. What I find most amazing is that *all* this happened because she just couldn’t resist “reporting” a ninth “hate crime”. Well she wanted attention and she got it. Hope it was worth it.

patricia (5fc097) — 6/15/2015 @ 9:21 pmMegyn Kelly interviewed Dolezan’s parents tonight. They confirmed a number of fabrications by their daughter. It was just bizarre. They seem mystified by her fraud, and believe she has completely assimilated into black culture and really sees herself as such.
Dana (86e864) — 6/15/2015 @ 9:36 pmMARXISTS never lose. They REDEFINE the language and CONTINUE.
Gus (7cc192) — 6/15/2015 @ 9:42 pmThe GOP has not learned this. Americans by and large have ceased to THINK. Americans’ “DIGNIFY” and accept utter BULLCHIP, so as not to be BRANDED. It’s easier to be complicit in the crime than to decry the crime for what it is. Obama is PROOF. Obama is the BIGGEST CON in HISTORY, and even the REPUBLICAN PARTY lacks the BALLS to confront the LIE. FEAR. Our leaders are AFRAID.
Dana, Dolezals’ parents clearly understand that their daughter is SICK. And VERY DISHONEST.
Gus (7cc192) — 6/15/2015 @ 9:44 pmOK now I know it’s a parody; heh!

Dear Stevie. This woman LIED and lied and lied and lied and lied and lied and lied. Then she lied some more. She made ridiculous claims and lied more.
Stevie, does her DISHONEST mean NOTHING to you???

Gus (7cc192) — 6/15/2015 @ 10:06 pmre #13: i like that idea and hoped it was true. but it looks like her parents are not backing that story. Like Simon Jester, i feel sorry for her that her mind got so messed up.
seeRpea (0cf003) — 6/15/2015 @ 10:08 pmwhenever the box filled up with empty cans, I took them to the recycling center and redeemed them for cash.”
LOL. That one of the US’s presidents over the past 30 years is such an easy target for mockery — of the sleazy kind — says it all about what this country has become, what it has devolved to.
Meanwhile, scroungy Obama and his minions such as nut-job Dolezal are pulling up the rear in 2015.
Absolutely pathetic.
Mark (a11af2) — 6/15/2015 @ 10:18 pmRachael Dolezal convinces herself and others she is black, is exposed, loses her job and position in NAACP, is humiliated and unemployed after years of arguing for the same issues as NAACP.
Bruce Jenner convinces himself and others he is female, publicly, and his net worth is expected to quintuple to $500 million.
What is wrong with this picture?
Estragon (ada867) — 6/15/2015 @ 11:02 pmFinally, a job opening I can fill. Because I’m not a white woman pretending I’m black. I would think the NAACP is about ready to accept old white guys for open positions because of the not lying part. Plus I am a whole lot less irritating. My credo is “Hey, you want to try that out? Go for it. Who am I to judge?”
I think that gets me two points on the MSNBC scale and about nothing on the Jesus scale. Woohoo, MSNBC! You got your convert for July.

mg (31009b) — 6/16/2015 @ 2:05 amFact is Rachel Dolezal is not a white woman. She’s a black male. Because she says she is and she’s part of the New Normal. And soon, very soon, like all the other leftist crybaby’s she’ll be a multimillionaire 1%’er. Along with her mentor, Hillary exclamation mark.

narciso (ee1f88) — 6/16/2015 @ 6:39 amAh, but that’s the real genius of the revenge. Now we have a row about whether she’s Black because she says/believes she’s Black, while her parents obviously claim she’s White. Of course, the Black general population hates that concept because there goes all of the benefits of being Black. In fact, if you look at what professors are being “taught” at the California state universities in their re-education camps about “microaggressions” [ http://www.ucop.edu/academic-personnel-programs/programs-and-initiatives/faculty-diversity-initiatives/faculty-leadership-seminars.html – click on “Tool: recognizing microaggressions (pdf)] you’ll find that a white woman attempting to equate her gender “discrimination” with a Black woman’s racial “discrimination” is labelled a microaggression. Thus, the specter of transracialism is rearing it’s ugly head, all because the NAACP, EWU, the citizen oversight committee of Spokane, etc., fell for Rachel’s fraud. Those institutions now look like fools to their constituencies. Then, add the fact, as pointed out above in a comment, that it took a White person to resuscitate the local NAACP. Next, add Rachel’s statements that she’s just like Rosa Parks, and those institutions are not only being publicly humiliated, they’re being disgraced before their constituencies.
The coup de grace is the fact that those institutions are now forced to run around saying they’re not racist by disclaiming the fact that Rachel’s whiteness had anything to do with her leaving the institution. Of course, everyone and their brother knows this is bs, because she would have never gotten into those institutions if she hadn’t been considered to be Black. This is especially true of the institutions’ constituencies because, what the hell, if they don’t hire Blacks for these positions, why would Blacks support the institutions.
My next conspiracy theory is that Elizabeth Warren is the secretly transgendered Ward Churchill.
