RACHEL DOLEZAL v CAITLYN JENNER

Newsflash!!!

TRANSGENDERISM is real

TRANSRACIAL is some made up B.S. boo

And if race being a social construct means it's not real - so not real that you can get a tan, perm and twist your hair, then trot out a fake black daddy and become black just like that (snap!), then the racism that attends being black isn't very real either. Bigots make the latter claim daily. Do not join them.

Race and racism are both social constructs and they are both real.

CHOOSING "cultural appropriation" and telling elaborate lies about your identity for some sort of gain (even it's psychological) is not comparable to BEING and BEING BORN transgendered.

"Cultural Appropriation" is an act, the putting on of some else's racial or ethnic identity like a costume. And it doesn't require elaborate lies (Click here to see her first video)

"Being Transgendered" is what you are. The changes a transgendered person makes on the outside are being done so as to match your insides. That's probably over simplifying things, so here's an article -

Fake Black Daddy Strategically Placed Out In Right Field  http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/06/12/how-did-this-white-woman-convince-everyone-she-was-black.html

Since I think I might be seeing a trend among Dolezal's defenders, let me just put a few things out there: 1) RACHEL DOLEZAL IS TO NAACP MEMBERS as IGGY AZALEA IS TO RAP MUSICIANS A new friend recently said, why waste time working your way up the white woman ladder when you can be fast tracked to the top of the black woman ladder? Why indeed. Iggy Azalea is no dummy. Rachel Dolezal probably isn't either. Neither of them wasted any time getting to the top...and in more ways than one. That pale AND identifying as African American? There probably hasn't been a bigger tropy wife to be bagged in all of the NAACPs chapters in the entire country for a decade.

Debate would be quite different if a white man was passing for a black man within the NAACP. "He's transracial. We love him. He's helping us. But he's done a lot of good" wouldn't be a part of the intraracial conversation AT ALL. Lies and integrity would be the issue for everyone including NAACP HQ.  

2) Dolezal's motives aren't all altruistic. It appears she's done tons of altruistic things, but elaborate lies about your identity don't go in the altruistic box. Even if the payoff is psychological, there is one.

3) Black people have the ability to run their own stuff. Believe it or not, if Rachel Dolezal had never been born and a black person was in charge, lots of great things would still be getting done in that NAACP chapter.

4) It was not necessary to lie about her race to move up in the NAACP. As recently as 2013, there was an openly white NAACP Chapter President elected in Reno, Nevada. 5) It was NOT necessary for her to become white just to be a better anti-racism advocate. In fact, if she been honest about being white, she might have made better connections with white people who need correction. Racial progress in the U.S. is almost entirely about making white people more aware of racial stereotypes, exclusion of racial other, white superiority and the potential for racial violence over practically nothing that, for the most part, white people are willfully unaware of.

I don't know what Rachael Dolezal's deal is, but whatever IT IS, I do know that it is NOT about us. She has decided to insist on calling herself not "African American" but "black" despite being flat busted and refuses to explain the inexplicable. All I can say to that is, may she work her issues out in peace ....once the jokes are done. Click here to see her prepared statement/interview. It's one of the worst I've ever seen. The first video (link near the top) when she was unprepared tells a truer story.
