race is not the same as ethnicity. Everything you say is true, but race has no grounding in biology or scientific differences. Ethnicity does and it has been shown that your race has no correlation to your ethnicity.

do have a feeling this Dolezal dame has been fabricated by the media to make both Trans people and Black people look kinda stupid. I mean they're both pretty current news targets at the moment, ya think??

She looks like a lady with a bad tan, if anything...
Everything I've read about her is that she's fucking pathological... like, her ex boyfriend says she's batshit, and her parents are the ones who outed her in the first place... She apparently took her adopted brother (who's actually black) from her parents, became his guardian, and made him practically hate white people (according to her other adopted brother)
She seems to have an obsessive interest in african american culture to the point where she's overdoing it... I mean... love black culture and history and whatever, but don't go to such a level. Maybe she had to 'become black' because Spokane has no black people? haha.
Basically this is a crazy woman.
I love how Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said: "I too have been living a lie, i've been saying i'm 7'2 for decades when really i'm 5'8". Pretty hilarious.
As for 'transracial' vs 'transsexual' or 'transgender' whatever...
I'll leave this one for someone with a little more knowhow on the subject to do some research. I'd be very interested in reading some real science on this, as I'm pretty damn sure that 'transracial' isn't very deeply studied out there... I mean, maybe someone's looked into it on the basis of Michael jackson or something? or in an assimilatory sense... but probably not quite so hard in the psychological sense...
In this case though, it seems this lady mostly used her fake blackness to try to get shit... she sued Howard University on the basis that she was black when they denied her shit, she furthered her career on the basis that she was black. It's akin to a guy becoming a woman in order to win a bunch of gold medals at the olympics or become the WNBA's lebron.. People who are transgender are generally out of the spotlight as much as they can be, and aren't trying to further themselves on such a basis... So thats's where the biggest difference is here.

Yeah. that's where this is troublesome... If somebody wants to claim they identify as black because they were white and raised in a black family or something... then fuckin... alright man... that's up to you dude. Doesn't bother me.
...it's when you try to say you're black simply to further your own shit where I have an issue here... and that's a whole other story. Pretty sure transexuals aren't just trying to change genders for the benefits.
Anyway yep... India and China are the largest populations... sooner or later white people gon get humped... and everyone will then just be beige...
