NAACP Leader, "I Do Consider Myself Black"

I'm not sure I get the question. Are you saying that society considers it ok to fabricate hate crimes against yourself and use them for personal gain? I'd love to see some examples if so.
 

Well I think there is a difference between "being ok with it" and "not frowning upon it" as i said.  It's more of an indifference from society as a whole.  Last year(or maybe two years ago), Oprah lied about not being shown an expensive handbag while in Europe insinuating racism.  Michelle Obama lied about her subtle racist experience at Target.  Makes for a great story and helps them push a narrative.  But other than right wing talk shows, nobody cares they lied.  

 

I doubt this lady made it to the head of that regional branch of the NAACP because of a few made up stories.  Sounds like she has done a lot to earn the role.  I think most of the outrage is the fact that they were hoodwinked into a white person obtaining such a prominent role.  Remember at UNF a few years ago when that white kid was running for some kind of prominent role at the black student union?  And he won the position I think.  And there was this huge outrage amongst all the black kids for some reason.  Who says a white person cant do the job well or support the cause?  Just like this lady.  Sure maybe she made up a few stories about racism but so has Oprah.  So has Michelle.  Nobody cares.  Sells the story.  Pushes the narrative.
