An Aboriginal activist has accused Australian rapper Iggy Azalea of adopting a 'black' persona by comparing her to a US civil rights activist who has been outed as a white woman. She controversially compared Ms Dolezal to Iggy Azalea saying they had 'a lot in common' and insinuated the Australian singer had adopted a black persona to boost her profile. Ms Lui, who writes for the Black Comedy show, tweeted: '@iggyazalea meet #RachelDolezal, I think you'll find you have a lot in common'. She followed up with a second tweet about Ms Dolezal when she wrote: 'In light of #RachelDolezal It should be acknowledged that Ethnjc (sic) Fraud a major issue in Aus Aboriginal community — w/ many holding meetings.'

whoop there it is

The reach. Do these activists complain about anything? As long as they get exposure I guess - because that's all it is at the end of the day. Self serving under the guise of helping "the greater good".

Nakkiah, meet Shamu. I think you'll find you have a lot in common.

This always gets me with activists who say this. Is it not MORE insulting, to insinuate that all there is to "being black" is rap and the image associated with that? As if all black people are rap characters going around wearing gold chains, doing drugs and in gangs. I don't see Michelle, their kids, or Barack Obama doing that crap. Nor do I see a vast majority of other black people doing it, who are going to school and earning a wage through their degrees.
