If you remember last year, Dolezal became notorious over night when her parents outed her for being “white,” after she had claimed and went to extreme lengths to be a black woman for decades. After being outed, Dolezal received a ton of attention, and then just kind of faded off into the sea of other bizarre news stories– that is, until now.
Along with addressing her identity, the former African studies professor (who’s contract at Eastern Washington had expired and wasn’t renewed after the debacle) plans to also incorporate some of her old teaching material.
She told Vanity Fair last year “I don’t know spiritually and metaphysically how this goes, but I do know that from my earliest memories I have awareness and connection with the black experience, and that’s never left me. It’s not something that I can put on and take off anymore. Like I said, I’ve had my years of confusion and wondering who I really [was] and why and how do I live my life and make sense of it all, but I’m not confused about that any longer. I think the world might be—but I’m not.”
Dolezal says she plans on teaching again, and getting back into racial injustice; which is fine, I just hope she learns to correctly self identity going forward.
