Ruthanne and Larry Dolezal said their daughter has always identified with the African American culture and had black siblings who were adopted. They said she went to school in Mississippi and was part of a primarily African American community.

The Dolezals said Rachel married and later divorced a black man. They said after the divorce in 2004 Rachel began identifying differently. She started claiming to be partially African American and the daughter of bi-racial parents. They said they have noticed her change in physical appearance but do not know how she did so.

"Rachel has wanted to be somebody she's not. She's chosen not to just be herself but to represent herself as an African American woman or a biracial person. And that's simply not true," said Ruthanne Dolezal.

Never should've adopted those kids. :shake:

The most hilarious part of this whole story is that only lonely old white men give a damn. And somehow they feel persecuted.

Or, perhaps, you are only listening to "old white men". I didn't know this until I investigated (also have to acknowledge, I didn't know there was a "Black Twitter"), but for many--not all--in the Black community, what she has done is offensive and they do "give a damn".

In the aftermath of Dolezal's "outing," hordes of black people...particularly those on "Black Twitter," (another ridiculous step back) have crucified Dolezal and anybody (such as singer Keri Hilson) who dared to say anything positive about Dolezal.
