Disgraced race activist Rachel Dolezal finally admits she was born white

Disgraced race activist Rachel Dolezal has finally admitted that she was born white.
The former National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People (NAACP) leader admitted her race on national TV on Monday.
"I was biologically born white, to white parents," the 37-year-old told the co-hosts of Fox's "The Real."
Dolezal, who is believed to be pregnant with a baby boy , resigned from the NAACP in June after being outed as white by her estranged parents.
During a tense grilling with The Real's panel, Dolezal explained: "Sometimes how we feel is more powerful then how we are born.
"Blackness can be defined as philosophical, cultural, biological, a lot of different things for a lot of different people. I do think you have to walk the walk if that's how you are."
Dolezal claims to have identified as black from the age of five but had the white identity "thrust" upon her until she was strong enough to embrace her true self.

Dolezal carried out her racial charade for years before her estranged parents outed her as white.
Dolezal, who alters her appearance to look African-American, told America's Today show earlier this year that she had considered herself black for almost her entire life.

  5. Blacks are bleaching to look psuedo-white, and this white is "trans colouring" to look black? What a confused world we live in.

  8. They finally found a way to silence her by revealing her true identity, to me what she stood for and campaigned for far outweighed every colour sentiment.

  9. They should free the woman joor. If America can accept and even praise people like Bruce abi na Caitlyn for turning to woman because he 'feels like a woman inside' (and those that do the reverse), why are they disturbing her because she considers and feels black? America is okay with picking and choosing the gender you desire and spending thousands of dollars having surgery to recreate oneself but they get angry when it concerns ethnicity. Mtchewwww.

  10. Linda, I think you shouldn't have added that word "disgraced to this post" cos she seems to have remained resolute in her pursuit of real happiness in defense of who she really is from inside. I don't think her white parents divulging or revealing her natural identity has in any way beclouded her reasoning. To me she is not just pretending or doing this for fame. She's just being her.

  12. LOL, anyone who insults this woman and expects others to accept a man or woman who alters her/his appearance to be addressed as something else is a bloody FOOL. So shove it, cos they are both the same!
