Rachel Dolezal incident


Does anyone remember that episode of Lynn's sister coming to visit her and her white sister walked in and acted the stereotype of a black woman with cornrows, etc? Maya referred to her as a wigger. That is the first thing that the Rachel Dolezal story reminded me of.

This is one of my favorite episodes and I have it on tape. I didn't like Lynn's sister. She bugged me with her stereotypes and I don't like the Lynn character, but I did like her in this episode and I liked how she told her sister off at the end. Apparently her sister forgot that she was 1/2 black.

Rachel is on an entirely different level. Lynn's sister was just another white person trying to make themselves some kind of authority on someone else's culture. Rachel bodysnatched an entire cultural identity and fabricated a background that threw her family under the bus.
