Hey most of these dudes call Kim K white. Cut me some slack.
There are Spanish, Portuguese and Italian women who are as dark as Kim and they identify as white.

It's one thing when someone chooses to commiserate and identify with a group that's historically oppressed and identifies with their struggle.
Sammy Sosa IMO was the case of a Black man who HATED living in his own skin because of his own sense of racial inferiority and chose to become his ideal, a White man.
It's subtle but there's a difference.
I don't know if Ms. Dolezal has any negative feelings against White people, per se. Although some of her actions and decisions are questionable when it came to including Whites in civil rights activities.
To me it's the same as a BM who has a preference for WW and has a strong dislike for BW compared to a BM who's more inclined to date a WW but still dates women of other ethic and racial backgrounds.

Yep and lots of us have curly hair too.
Many really didn't have a choice though when their families came over.
I know CA is weird but we have a huge community of Armenian in the Central Valley and I've never known anyone to say they were "white". They will very clearly say they are Armenian.
Many people really don't get into that whole if you are "white" or "Black". I think Bliss said something about this too, I never really was called a "white woman" until I got on the internet.

Yes. I identify as Greek, then Australian. And by heart, American. White is far too broad for me.

Rachel helping Black people, Course 101
Rachel sued Howard University in 2002 - claiming that they discriminated against her because she’s white. The details of the lawsuit were uncovered by The Smoking Gun.
Rachel Dolezal, who went by Rachel Moore then, filed the suit against Howard University and a Professor Alfred Smith, the chairman of the university’s Art department. Here is what the Smoking Gun had to say::
"According to a Court of Appeals opinion, Dolezal’s lawsuit “claimed discrimination based on race, pregnancy, family responsibilities and gender.” She alleged that Smith and other school officials improperly blocked her appointment to a teaching assistant post, rejected her application for a post-graduate instructorship, and denied her scholarship aid while she was a student.
The court opinion also noted that Dolezal claimed that the university’s decision to remove some of her artworks from a February 2001 student exhibition was “motivated by a discriminatory purpose to favor African-American students over her".
As detailed in the court opinion, Dolezal’s lawsuit contended that Howard was “permeated with discriminatory intimidation, ridicule, and insult.”
Rachel lost the lawsuit and was ordered to pay back the school."
