I would argue that she did this to further her career, except she says she first assumed different identities since childhood.


Oh well, another one. It just goes to show how easy it is for some whites that can pass for black.

Not an expert on higher education, but I've heard that you can be White and be a university professor at the same time.

Beat me to it. Race is more of a social construct than gender.

Well, if your mother is Chinese and your father is Caucasian then you're biracial. Not sure how you could be "transracial" without altering your DNA?

This is the first "black" president of the NAACP. If he was black, anybody can be black. This university professor is actual more believable as black than Walter White. She has broader features.
This man looks like he could be partially SS African.
