Rachel Dolezal, the white woman infamous for identifying herself as a black person for decades and running a chapter of the NAACP, blames the “white media” for her troubles.
“It’s kind of a manufactured frenzy and controversy that got stirred up in 2015, right? By white media, the white parents, the white police… those are the people who instigated that controversy,” she told “Vice News Tonight” correspondent Dexter Thomas.
She said that if black people are mad at her, it’s “based on a white narrative,” and that the negative press has hurt her changes of getting a job.
“People just are, you know, not ready to progress and evolve and move forward on the issue of race, and I think part of what’s holding that up is there’s still this sense of, like, a score needs to be settled,” she said.
