NAACP Official Faces Accusations That She Is White . . . From Her Mother

rachel3_t620-1.pngThere is another controversy over the veracity of representations of minority status in Washington. We previously discussed the controversy raised by the allegedly false claims of Senator Elizabeth Warren that she is a Native American. In this case, however, the accused is the head of a NAACP chapter and she is being accused of lying by her own mother. Worse yet, some have suggested that Rachel Dolezal, who is the head of the NAACP’s chapter in Spokane, planted hate mail at her office.

Dolezal has described her ethnicity as white, black, and American Indian in past papers and applications. However, her mother, Ruthanne, said that she is Czech, Swedish, and German, along with some “faint traces” of Native American heritage.

That has led to angry responses from different groups that she represented herself as a minority when she was selected for different positions. Dolezal has called the controversy a “multi-layered issue” and insisted “That question is not as easy as it seems. There’s a lot of complexities … and I don’t know that everyone would understand that.” She then added “We’re all from the African continent.” Many have interpreted that statement as a claim that, since mankind itself has been traced to Africa, everyone is an African to some degree. The definition is not sufficient for various groups. It raises, as did the Warren controversy, the basis for claiming minority status — a status that can give an edge in applications or hirings.

In addition, critics have raised suspicious racially motivated incidents reported by Dolezal while she was in Coeur d’Alene, including the discovery of a swastika on the Human Rights Education Institute’s door. Likewise, Spokane police records for February and March of this year showed that a hate mail package Dolezal reported receiving at the NAACP’s post office box did not bear a date stamp or barcode. Dolezal denies responsibility for those incidents.

The question is how to handle such cases in not only definition how to prove or what constitutes minority status or how to respond to allegedly false claims. If one receives payment for holding a position secured by assurance of minority status, can it be an actionable from of fraud or misrepresentation for the purposes of criminal or civil liability?

    Gee, Wade. Which answer did you pick??? Do you have the courage to call drooling feral blacks just that??? Or, are you too busy being politically correct???

    Too hard for you??? Maybe this one is easier:

    First, watch the video:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7Bl96C1qc4

    Now, pick the answer which best describes the subject individuals physically interacting in the parking lots:

    1. Typical average black citizens; or

    2. Drooling, feral blacks.

    Test over!

  3. There is nothing that says people should be able to vote early and nothing that says that if they do not it is voter fraud.

    1. To the best of my knowledge no one has ever accused me of being pc.

      But it seems to me you present a false dichotomy.

      It seems to me we see several different kinds of behavior in the video.

      At the start it looks like some men of a certain age are out looking for action much like men of that age regardless of of their ethnic group.

      Later I think we see some combative and self destructive behavior. I will guess that it is over something completely trivial.

      But I did not see anyone drooling. And I did not see any behavior that was feral – maybe lower middle class, or combative, violent, or drunken which are behaviors common to all ethnic groups I know of. If I had a background in psychology or sociology I could probably put a finer point on what I have seen in the video.

      It seems to me that drooling feral is nothing more than intentionally insulting. The fact that drooling feral, in this thread, has been applied solely to African Americans leads me to believe the term is used with racist intent as well.

      So there you have it. I like to call things according to my best understanding which is definitely not guided by pc. I do not agree with the dichotomy that they are either drooling feral or typical average. I don’t see that it is accurate, useful, or suggestive of anything illuminating to call these people drooling feral. On the contrary I think I have mentioned several other terms that I think are far more descriptive of what is going on in the video and far more useful for understanding the behavior we see.

      I don’t find you remarks or you video convincing at all.

  6. So how many of y’all think Squeeky was simply the cat’s meow using the vile ” drooling feral blacks” to describe African Americans? I guess y’all must think that she was cute, a tacit agreement it appears.

  7. Nick:

    “bam, If you learn nothing from this please understand LIBERALS TAKE CARE OF THEIR OWN!” I know, this is SO WEIRD. If a Republican pretended to be black and allegedly stole positions and college entrance based on that lie, she would be tarred and feathered. I do see some criticism, but there is this element that will literally defend a Liberal no matter what they do.

    If a Republican or Libertarian declared herself a Presidential candidate, and then refused to grant any interviews or answer virtually no questions concerning multiple allegations of breaking the law and serious violations of the rules of the State Department, there would be no question that she would be pilloried. And rightfully so. But if it is a Liberal, the True Believers apply a double standard, appearing to be completely unaware that they do so.

    I suppose every party has its True Believers. The Liberal ones have certainly been on display recently.

    And you are right that voter fraud is rampant. I have seen multiple news stories in which a journalist with a video camera goes door to door and illegal aliens admit that they are not citizens but voted in an election. But it’s so rare for it to be investigated or prosecuted. In fact, any attempt to purge the voter roles of illegal entries is automatically fought as racist or trying to disenfranchise the poor.

    In such a case, they all act like Hillary Clinton – the law does not apply, and trying to enforce the law will receive a backlash.

  8. If the words are so vile, why have you repeated them so many times? You must have driven your mother crazy.

  9. @Wade

    You still didn’t address my argument. IIRC Republican gains in some of these usually blue states is a recent thing. Why didn’t they change the laws when they had the chance IF IF IF they are truly as Jim Crow-y as they claim.

    It is like Obama saying that the Republicans are blocking his Immigration Reform. Well, that’s mostly true. Because they mostly are. BUT —The Democrats had complete control of Congress for the first two years of his presidency. Uh, why didn’t they pass it then???

    I think the Democrats are sometimes happier to complain about the Republicans than they are to do things when they have the chance. And that is what has happened to the Voter ID stuff, election reforms. We are on different turf now, where the real aim of the Democrats is to electorally benefit from all the illegal aliens that have let in.

    Which to add to the above, doesn’t even make “green” sense. My goodness, millions of people coming in from 3rd world countries transforms them from lower energy users into higher energy users. And, just FWIW:

    I interviewed Mexican journalist Evangelina Hernandez while visiting Denver last week. Hernandez said, ‘They (illegal aliens) pay rent, buy groceries, buy clothes…What Happens to your country’s economy if 20 million people go away?’ Hummm, I thought, what would happen, so I did my due diligence, buried my nose as a reporter into the FACTS I found below.

    It’s a good question – it deserves an honest answer. Over 80% of Americans demand secured borders and illegal migration stopped. But what would happen if all 20 million or more vacated America ?

    The answers I found may surprise you!

    In California , if 3.5 million illegal aliens moved back to Mexico, it would leave an extra $10.2 billion to spend on overloaded school systems, bankrupt hospitals and overrun prisons. It would leave highways cleaner, safer and less congested. Everyone could understand one another as English became the dominant language again.

    In Colorado , 500,000 illegal migrants, plus their 300,000 kids and grand-kids – would move back ‘home’, mostly to Mexico . That would save Coloradans an estimated $2 billion (other experts say $7 billion) annually in taxes that pay for schooling, medical, social-services and incarceration costs. It means 12,000 gang members would vanish out of Denver alone.

    Colorado would save more than $20 million in prison costs, and the terror that those 7,300 alien criminals set upon local citizens. Denver Officer Don Young and hundreds of Colorado victims would not have suffered death, accidents, rapes and other crimes by illegals.

    Denver Public Schools would not suffer a 67 percent drop-out/flunk-out rate because of thousands of illegal alien students speaking 41 different languages. At least 200,000 vehicles would vanish from our gridlocked cities in Colorado . Denver ‘s 4% unemployment rate would vanish as our working poor would gain jobs at a living wage.

    In Florida , 1.5 million illegals would return the Sunshine State back to America , the rule of law, and English.

    In Chicago , Illinois , 2.1 million illegals would free up hospitals, schools, prisons and highways for a safer, cleaner and more crime-free experience.

    If 20 million illegal aliens returned ‘home’, the U.S. Economy would return to the rule of law. Employers would hire legal American citizens at a living wage. Everyone would pay their fair share of taxes because they wouldn’t be working off the books. That would result in an additional $401 Billion in IRS income taxes collected annually, and an equal amount for local, state and city coffers.

    No more push ’1′ for Spanish or ’2′ for English. No more confusion in American schools that now must contend with over 100 languages that degrade the educational system for American kids. Our over-crowded schools would lose more than two million illegal alien kids at a cost of billions in ESL and free breakfasts and lunches.

    We would lose 500,000 illegal criminal alien inmates at a cost of more than $1.6 billion annually. That includes 15,000 MS-13 gang members who distribute $130 billion in drugs annually would vacate our country.

    In cities like L.A. , 20,000 members of the ‘ 18th Street Gang’ would vanish from our nation. No more Mexican forgery gangs for ID theft from Americans! No more foreign rapists and child molesters!

    Losing more than 20 million people would clear up our crowded highways and gridlock. Cleaner air and less drinking and driving American deaths by illegal aliens!

    America ‘s economy is drained. Taxpayers are harmed. Employers get rich. Over $80 billion annually wouldn’t return to the aliens’ home countries by cash transfers. Illegal migrants earned half that money untaxed, which further drains America ‘s economy – which currently suffers an $8.7 trillion debt.

    At least 400,000 anchor babies would not be born in our country, costing us $109 billion per year per cycle. At least 86 hospitals in California , Georgia and Florida would still be operating instead of being bankrupt out of existence because illegals pay nothing via the EMTOLA Act.

    Americans wouldn’t suffer thousands of TB and hepatitis cases rampant in our country-brought in by illegals unscreened at our borders.

    Our cities would see 20 million less people driving, polluting and grid locking our cities. It would also put the ‘progressives’ on the horns of a dilemma; illegal aliens and their families cause 11 percent of our greenhouse gases.

    Over one million of Mexico ‘s poorest citizens now live inside and along our border from Brownsville , Texas to San Diego , California in what the New York Times called, ‘colonias’ or new neighborhoods. Trouble is, those living areas resemble Bombay and Calcutta where grinding poverty, filth, diseases, drugs, crimes, no sanitation and worse. They live without sewage, clean water, streets, elec tricity, roads or any kind of sanitation.

    The New York Times reported them to be America ‘s new ‘ Third World ‘ inside our own country. Within 20 years, at their current growth rate, they expect 20 million residents of those colonias. (I’ve seen them personally in Texas and Arizona ; it’s sickening beyond anything you can imagine.) By enforcing our laws, we could repatriate them back to Mexico . We should invite 20 million aliens to go home, fix their own countries and/or make a better life in Mexico . We already invite a million people into our country legally more than all other countries combined annually. We cannot and must not allow anarchy at our borders, more anarchy within our borders and growing lawlessness at every level in our nation.

  10. Don’t see an edit button and I’m typing on a cell phone which is a pain but that should say “among” not “smog”

    1. CK07 – thanks for the correction. I was getting a migraine trying to make sense of your post.

  11. Squeaky Fromm,
    Way to ignore the fact that republicans are the main ones blocking early voting in those states too:
    http://mobile.nytimes.com/2013/05/04/opinion/early-voting-in-new-york-means-easier-voting.html?referrer=&_r=0

    All but 1 republican votes no in NY.
    Yet you fail to address the VRA repeal and voting ID laws which studies have shown are unnecessary and would only harm minorities and the elderly.

    Meanwhile you say racism has no tangible effect on minorities while claiming half of black youth are feral savages. With views like that smog conservatives do you really think jobs will give a fair shake to blacks applying for jobs? Even those Jamaicans you described will be viewed as savages by people like you who see black and assume savage. Hence why you justify officers treating them in a discriminatory fashion like the one who killed mike brown saying he saw a demon as opposed to a citizen. Or the many neocons justifying the officer who manhandled that girl in Texas and only rounded up blacks.

    So anyway I had this post with several links to backup the elderly issue and the admission on voter id being not a necessity but I think the amount of links made my comment moderated. With jt out until Monday I’ll just post this for now since its been over an hour.

  12. C’mon Nick. Show the same amount of courage that Obama has shown.

    Are you going to MAKE me regret saying “those who say ‘drooling feral blacks’ “.

    Just how do you intend to make me regret saying “those who say ‘drooling feral blacks’ “.

  15. Wade, the 10:26 PM, comment does sound like a threat. He always does these sort of things when JT is out of town, it never fails.

  16. Sbam, Squeek and Karen, I have said this previously and it is clear tonight. These cultists are going off the rails because they know they have a failed President and a loser candidate they don’t even like for 2016. I think 2016 is going to make the Dems butt kicking in 2014 look like a walk in the park. That’s why they’re litigating. But, it won’t work. Thusly the ranting we see. Can’t you just see the spittle on troll boys computer in mommy’s basement. LOL!

  17. Squeek, Their cult leader Obama got his ass kicked today on the trade bill. He tried to be kissy w/ the Dems. He has treated them like red headed step children since 2008 and they finally told him to kiss their fat ass. A Dem Congressman was livid and said Obama tried to intimidate them. Prissy law profs can’t intimidate. This is a failed Presidency.

  18. Nick,

    Tell us again about the fat lesbian, Hillary. Tell us about the rapist, Bill Clinton. Tell us about the cultists. Tell us about the unions – the education industrialists (ignore that’s how Jebbie makes a good deal of money) tell us how the Christian Churches are all locked up and the Christians are forced into living in camps.

    Please, please, please tell us how we are all going to hell because of all these damn liberals.

  19. Note:

    Spitzer and the tweeter guy. Gone in 60 seconds. Vitter/diaper guy is in a leadership position. And the whip from LA is a real jewel, too. Likes the Klan.

    But it’s the liberals who protect their own.

  20. @NickS

    Thank you for the info. If no early voting=jim crow, then Connecticut has had many years to correct the situation. Wade is correct that the GOP is trying to hold up “early voting” in Connecticut, but I think you have to consider that in light of the current scenario we face. The Democrats are trying to stuff the ballot boxes with illegal immigrants. It is not a short term plan, and it will take them a few years to bring them fully into the Democratic machines, but it is happening. But even the left-leaning Washington Post can see it:

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/monkey-cage/wp/2014/10/24/could-non-citizens-decide-the-november-election/

    There is no other reason, and certainly no economic reason, to bring in millions of unskilled laborers into a country where there are already over 90 million unemployed and under employed citizens. Every Mexican brought in takes a job from a black person. But, since poor people tend to vote Democratic, the party is able to keep a large number of barefoot and pregnant voters on tap.

    On top of that you have Obama trying to push the TPP deal, and the idiot Republicans are helping him. It is like the slave holder days all over again, with the moneyed interests caring more about either maintaining political power and/or economic power than the position of our country.
