Rachel Dolezal Sued Howard University for Refusing to Hire Her Because She Was White

Rachel Dolezal, the white woman who passed herself off as black, resigned as president of the Spokane NAACP today. The New York Times reports the writing was on the wall when chapter members began a petition to have her removed:

Monday was expected to bring a reckoning of some kind, at a previously scheduled meeting of the Spokane N.A.A.C.P. chapter. Ms. Dolezal said last week that she would not address the matter publicly until she had discussed it with her chapter’s executive committee and membership, and she expected it to be aired at the meeting.

But on Sunday, a chapter Facebook posting said, “Due to the need to continue discussion with regional and national N.A.A.C.P. leaders, tomorrow’s meeting is postponed and will be rescheduled for a later date.” That angered some chapter officials, who said Ms. Dolezal did not have the authority unilaterally to postpone the meeting; it was not clear Monday morning whether it would be held in the evening, as planned.

Chapter members had started an online petition and were planning a demonstration outside the chapter’s office Monday, both calling for Ms. Dolezal to step aside. The N.A.A.C.P. has had many white officials over the years, and critics said the issue is not Ms. Dolezal’s race, but her credibility.

After this story from Smoking Gun becomes known, she'll be ostracized by every black activist in the country.
