If she were black passing as white she would be embraced by whites because of the history of racism and compassion. Curiously it does not work going in the other direction.

This is an excellent observation that escaped me until I read it.

From my exposure to the culture on WSHH, I think black people would be excruciatingly critical of a black person trying to be white or even acting 'white'. I think that attitude captivates a person who would otherwise reject thug culture.

Rachel Dolezal is definitely sue happy. She lost her lawsuit, and then lost again at the appellate level.

http://www.thesmokinggun.com/d...ation-lawsuit-786451

As detailed in the court opinion, Dolezal’s lawsuit contended that Howard was “permeated with discriminatory intimidation, ridicule, and insult.”

Judge Zoe Bush dismissed Dolezal’s complaint in February 2004, 18 months after the lawsuit was filed and Dolezal was deposed on several occasions. Bush found no evidence that Dolezal was discriminated on the basis of race or other factors. The D.C. Court of Appeals subsequently affirmed Bush’s decision.

Following the dismissal of Dolezal’s lawsuit (and the Court of Appeals decision), she was ordered to reimburse Howard for a “Bill of Costs” totaling $2728.50. During the case, she was also ordered to pay the university nearly $1000 in connection with an “obstructive and vexatious” court filing that sought to improperly delay her examination by an independent doctor.

Dolezal’s lawsuit included “claims for medical and emotional distress damages,” according to a court docket. (5 pages)

I guess if she in on welfare and can't get a job, filing lawsuits is maybe a desperate means to get income. A lawsuit on the grounds "you hurt my feelings"??? Roll Eyes

I think there are a number of liberal pols and media people who have that same diagnosis. Smile

Odd that so few are calling the NAACP racist for terminating her because they found out she was white. Before that she was a competent employee. If it were reversed, would they be as silent?

Doesn't anybody care about lying anymore, or is it expected?

In my business, nothing got you canned faster than a whopper. Telling me something you knew to be untrue was it. No appeal, no mulligans, no mercy, no sympathy, no style points, no tears.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

I don't care if she is black, white, mauve or a shade of taupe.
I pay no attention to stupid people.
I had to google her name before I remembered who she was.
She's still irrelevant.
