In the latest in this bizarre story of Spokane, Wash. president of the NAACP Rachel Dolezal, the white woman who faked blackness for a decade before her parents exposed her, she was also found to have lectured her students — above all things — the history of black hair.
This past February, Dolezal gave a PowerPoint presentation about the history of black hair and her own personal experiences with, well, “black hair.”
Rachel Dolezal gave the presentation at Eastern Washington University, where she teaches, and talks about, among other things; a timeline of black hair, ‘nappiness,’ and the brown paper bag test in which only blacks with light skin were welcomed into events or offered jobs. The lecture was entitled “Black Is Beautiful.”
Dolezal opened her lecture by reading the poem Among the Things That Used to Be by Willi Coleman.
Coleman, a professor at University of Vermont, wrote the poem about black hair, ending the piece by saying; ‘Beauty shops could have been a hell-of-a-place to ferment a revolution.’
