FNP: NAACP EYEZ BRUCE JENNER




Faux News Press (FNP)_Washington, DC:

NEWS BRIEF

Rachel A. Dolezal, aged 37, recently resigned her position as president of the N.A.A.C.P. [“NAACP”] chapter in Spokane, Washington. The N.A.A.C.P. is an organization which has achieved perhaps the leading position in civil rights in the United States of America. Its official name is the “National Association for the Advancement of Colored People” (sic). Ms. Dolezal’s departure was not without a degree of controversy.



According to sources close to this controversy, Ms. Rachel A. Dolezal was born to “white parents.” FNP sources affirm that Ms. Dolezal’s parents claimed to be mostly of white stock with a small Native American contribution. Although this familial situation seemed to most observers to be rather mundane, a controversy developed because Ms. Dolezal had stated that she was “black” or “partly black” to media and others. When Ms. Dolezal’s parents affirmed that she was “white,” both Ms. Dolezal and the NAACP were put in an awkward position.

Initially, FNP sought a better understanding of this situation from former head of the NAACP Benjamin Todd Jealous, who had an especially keen understanding of West Coast civil rights affairs and who might have special insight into the Dolezal affair. Mr. Jealous, who now holds a partnership in Kapor Capital, was not available, as he was attending the Bilderberg meeting at Innsbruck, Austria. FNP has learned from one source, who demanded anonymity before speaking, that Mr. Jealous, a 2013 “Young Global Leader” selection by the Davos World Economic Forum, had joined President Barack Obama at the famous gathering to discuss - soto voce - policies that wealthy Western interests wanted America and Europe to pursue.



Failing to contact Mr. Jealous, FNP successfully contacted Ms. Claudia Withers, Chief Operating Officer for the national office of the NAACP. According to Ms. Withers, the NAACP had been founded in 1909 by a group of white people who were disturbed by a race riot in Springfield, Illinois. The NAACP was originally composed of about sixty people only seven of which were black. She speculated that that probably had something to do with the organizational name. “Colored” was at that time, she had noted to FNP, a proper, dignified nomenclature for African Americans. She felt that tradition probably accounted for its continued usage by the organization.

“So, you see,” said Ms. Withers, “The NAACP has always been a racially-open organization. Even the NAACP Legal Defense Fund was led by a number of prominent Jewish lawyers in the early years. Of course,” she noted, “as a minority, Jews have always been sensitive to civil rights issues.”

FNP pressed her on the matter of Rachel Dolezal. “You are saying that the fact that she was a white woman in a leadership position in the NAACP was not an issue; you believe that the issue in controversy involved her false claim to be black or partly black?”

Claudia Withers paused thoughtfully. She then advised FNP that she had discussed this matter thoroughly with Cornell William Brooke, NAACP National President & CEO. They had tossed about the claims made by Rachel A. Dolezal, and, although she had not spoken in a strictly truthful way, they found it very hard to make a final judgment that she was not in some way a “black woman.”

Continuing, Ms. Withers noted that Rachel Dolezal wanted to be a black person and thoroughly identified with black people & black culture. “How can we reject one of our own?” she asked. “We can’t!”
FNP then asked how the NAACP planned to balance the facts of the case and the heart of the matter. One theme was based on flesh and the other on mind, soul, and orientation. How will the NAACP turn its back on the latter and still maintain its credentials as the leader in civil rights matters?

At this point Ms. Withers told FNP: “Cornell and I believe that the answer has been given by Bruce Jenner. He has poignantly shown that “being yourself” over-rides all other considerations. If a human being can be transgender, why can’t a human being be transracial? Rachel Dolezal had convincingly transformed herself into a black lady. Who are we to say that she isn’t one? If she were to attend one of America’s top Soul Clinics and complete her transracial orientation, there is no reason that she could not meaningfully contribute to the African American and People of Color civil rights movement.”

FNP pressed Ms. Withers on whether Rachel A. Dolezal could ever lead as an officer in any NAACP national or regional office, after completion of such a final racial orientation.

Claudia Withers paused a moment, then replied: “The future’s not ours to see.”

Our interview with the chief operating officer of the NAACP National Office ended on that note. FNP will watch this matter closely. Should Rachel Dolezal decide to attend a first-rate Soul Clinic and become confirmed in her orientation as the first American transracial, then we may see amazing things from her in the future.
