Before Rachel Dolezal gets fired or ostracized... [View all]

[Archae]

What about those before her, who lied about their past?

Bill O'Reilly lied repeatedly about heroic stuff he did as a reporter, none of which turned out to be true.
O'Reilly said "Look at my ratings! Aren't they great?"
He got no sanction whatsoever.

David Barton, the pseudo-historian with a fundy Christian bent lied about being on the championship basketball team at Oral Roberts University during the early 1970's.
He also lied about being a translator for the Russian gymnastic team in 1976.
He also lied about smuggling Bibles into Russia during the 1970's.
Has he been sanctioned or ostracized? Heck no.
He still pulls in big bucks writing his fake history books and lecturing.

So before sanctioning Rachel Dolezal or ostracizing her, (the possibly-fake hate mail is different, and should be prosecuted if true,) sanction and ostracize the right-wing fabulists first.
