She is a fraud, she could have made a difference being exactly who she was. Some of the founding members of the NAACP were white, she didn't have to lie to kick it. But anyway, her braids are cute and I would love to hear her side of the story to know why she went through all of this.

I guess as a local NAACP leader she must have been just chewing gum, talking on the phone, and collecting a paycheck, right?
She has advocated for the rights of black people and minorities within her community. She has lectured and educated on topics related to African and African-American history. And I bet that both the NAACP and the media will eventually reveal more of what she has done for her local community.
That doesn't take away from the work that's being/been done by many others (Black, Latino, white, etc.). And it does not take away from the fact that she posed as someone with a racial heritage that is not hers. She may need to explain her choices and actions, but she should not be made into some laughing stock for the amusement of people who do nothing more than troll on the Internet and pray to their particular deities for the release of R8 or rubbish of that sort.
She's done more for the black community than most black people have, and she cares more about the our community than the nu blacks do. I really don't get why people want to pass judgement on her and get her ousted. We should be happy to have anyone on our side, regardless of racial background. And especially if they were dedicated enough to give up their privilege to share in our experience. Her dedication to the community is somewhat admirable imo.
Nothing more needs to be said tbh.
