You are asking African Americans to accept a liberal theory that you yourself don't even accept.
"Self identifies as black " is like "States Rights" it never was a thing, just because someone said it doesn't make it a fact. If you accept that all conservatives are not racist you should accept that all liberals don't think a like also.
You haven't been reading what I wrote - so how can you respond?
I accept her. Her self-identifying as black, Asian, white, or even Martian neither breaks my leg nor picks my pocket.
You refuse to explain your intolerance.
Is gender and race fluid?
Is gender and race a social construct?
If liberal ideology is correct, live and let live, end the bigotry.

Discussing gender and race within the same context is like discussing Bears and Bigfoot together. My intolerance is scientifically based. A DNA sample from this woman would indicate that she is white.
Is it odd that only White people get to Self identify as some other than what was on their birth certificate? Sounds like more White privilege to me. She doesn't even look black. She looks like a blackface minstrel.

And if I took a DNA sample from a transgender person it would indicate that they are not the gender that they self-identify as.
Once again your logic doesn't hold up, unless you are also intolerant of transgender people. If I were (but I am not) intolerant against transgender people, liberals would call for me to be fired.
Race is LESS cut and dry than gender. I as a white male arguably have more in common genetically with a black male than a white female.
There is no "race" gene, sure certain regions of the earth had humans evolve different and you can use those to determine with reasonable accuracy where your ancestors came from, but African-Americans (excepting new immigrants from Africa) are all part white - many whites are part black genetically.

Who says that? Not me. If you want to self-identify as white, go ahead. I won't stop you or criticize you.
DesertDetroiter has taken racist, bigoted, intolerant, and anti-science positions in threads over the years. He largely has gotten away with it over the years - if he were white, we'd call it white privilege that he gets to be openly a bigot. He says people can be race fluid - unless they are changing to black, then and only then do they need permission.

It is not easy to change one's physical appearance at such a foundational level and we also know her background story so we know to look for it.
Do you think all transgender people look like their "chosen gender" if completely naked? Would you say that a transgender is not their chosen gender if they didn't look like it naked?
I was looking for an update on this, found article from february 2019, with update on her life, the hubby is also going black and they plan move to Africa, short version for those not wanting to read complete text.
See https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/a...ly-Africa.html
The Sun UK news pictures and video of them in Africa.
Michael Jackson had vitiigo. That played a big factor.
Riiight.
Guess Michael's disease also caused his face features to turn into white features.
