  • The ultimate irony is that by all accounts she was doing an absolutely bang up job at the NAACP office she was head of, whilst also lecturing about the cultural significance of black women and their hair.

  • I'm not surprised. I suspect that for whatever reason and however misguided, she does, or did, completely identify as black. In terms of heading up an NAACP office, it's other capabilities that will be far more relevant to the role and if her competencies were up to scratch then there's little reason why couldn't be good at her job.
    I imagine local members are going to have to face up to some awkward realities and I hope that they come to the conclusion that it there was probably no intention to deceive and there are a lot of personal issues involved here.
