Rachel Dolezal: 'No biological proof' she has white parents

[marshall]

35. I agree the birth certificate by itself proves nothing

At most it proves those two people are her legal parents, and if there is a race/ethnicity noted then it proves how they identified themselves at the time. It does not prove that they are her biological parents, and it does not prove the ancestry behind any of them.

However I do think Delezal is dodging the real issue. She should stick to explaining coherently and directly why and how she identifies herself as black. I would also like to hear her explain what she thinks is the difference between black and African-American. I noted that Matt Lauer kept using the term African-American in his questions to her, and she consistently responded using the term black. That suggests to me that she sees some difference and I would like to hear her explanation of that.
