Rachel Dolezal: ‘I Don’t Give Two Sh*ts What You Guys Think’

Spokane NAACP leader Rachel Dolezal has come under intense scrutiny today for being white but “disguising” herself as black for years. Her family came forward to correct the record, and in one interview Dolezal gave, she tried to talk about the complexities of racial matters before just walking off.

Well, in another interview with Sky News, she said to the original article that questioned her racial identity, “I don’t give two shits what you guys think.”

She said it’s more important for her to “clarify” this with the black community than to “explain it to a community that I, quite frankly, don’t think really understands the definitions of race and ethnicity.”

Dolezal considers herself to be black and rejects the label “African-American.”
