In reply to the discussion: Rachel Dolezal Changes Her Name To Nkechi Amare Diallo [View all]heaven05
(18,124 posts)21. please you
seem to embody who I pointed to in these posts as being derisive of whites who want to be black. Many blacks used to pass for white and god help them if whites found out they had that two drops of black blood. So whites many times do the change against biological definitions of race out of maybe, most times, compassion. Blacks passing for whites in my day were looking for a better chance to get some of the 'things' promised to the then majority society. So I understand about the nature of people who cannot stand white women who identify with AA, hell, god forbid she has an AA husband or boyfriend. But I understand you attempt at humor. Fell flat on it's face by the way.

This isn't an attempt to garner more attention, it's an attempt to outrun it.
