It's one thing to claim to identify and feel more comfortable with black culture, but another thing entirely to claim to be black. One is a legitimate choice, the other is fraud, to say nothing of the fact that it is disrespectful to people whose race has had to overcome a lot of inequities and atrocities, only for her, who descends from those caused those atrocities, to fraudulently adopt that legacy as her own.

I've known people like her before, maybe not as extreme or notorious, but they glom onto black culture because they think it's cool. In reality, they are racists who recognize it, and are uncomfortable with it, so they go way to far in overcompensating for it.

    I don't believe that at all in this case. She has always been in relationships with black men, and her son is half black. And you think she's a racist. What?!
