I feel like that "drawing" she made, was something she did now and then pretended like she found an old drawing she made. The braids are the same braids she has now and the same colour. She probably told Dr. Phil, "Oh look what I found in a box in my attic! A drawing I did when I was four."

[@sassygreen5024]

I feel that too.

[@sophritoh]

Cmon u think dr Phil wouldn’t have loved to jump on that? He loves calling people out on his show, asking them a question he knows the answer to just to hear them lie and then confront them with the truth These shows do their research, I think the parents provided this drawing I know for sure that if she just drew that now, that dr Phil would be salivating just thinking of how he’s gonna call her out on it... “So you drew this at 4 years old?” “Yeah...” “Well our team did some research and we found that this paper is only 2 years old, so there’s no possible way you made this as a kid” Lol I’ve seen him catch people in those types of lies so many times, it’s so annoying when they won’t admit the obvious factual evidence... it’s like damn bruh... (Basically no way would dr Phil choose to let that slide, the ratings would be higher if it was a recent drawing; if it was made recently, he gets way more out of it by confronting her about it versus just letting it slide and basically helping boost her backstory... he wasn’t on her side in this, he was trying to poke holes in her story and idk at least to me it was obvious when he was “agreeing” that race was not biological and going in on that, that he was just saying that to get her to feel safe with him and open up)

[@SurferGirlAllAroundTheWorld]

@@sophritoh Yes that makes sense. I agree. He would pick up on that if it was “fresher” paper.

How is this any different than someone pretending to be a woman or a man the double standards are unbelievable in my opinion if someone can pretend to be those two things and several do why would a person not be allowed to be transracial I don't see what the difference is?

The important thing is, she lied about who she was. Claimed a black man was her father. Kinked her hair, and dyed it. And pushed that all the way until she was caught. Then out comes all these excuses. She's still doing it. She's still doing something to her skin to look darker, she's still wearing a black hairstyle, she's learned NOTHING from the experience. People should not hire her not socialize with her, until she begins to start being honest.

If race is a social construct than why she wants to let people think she’s Black which will insult them in the end since it’s a lie? If it’s just a social construct for her then it’s shouldn’t be important to her but she wanted them to see her as Black. She lied because she knew she would have problem stealing their place in spaces such as being a teacher of a course called “ the Black women struggles” because she has no experience on being a Black woman..her only experience is at being a fake biracial woman. If she loves Black people so much why not respect the, enough to let them choose if they want a White woman to teach classes about their struggles that she did not experience first hand or be the head of an organization that they are proud to use to represent themselves and try to make things move. She loves their cultures and their looks but she doesnt have enough respect to not lie to them.

If you think about it, a white person "identifying themselves" with the black population doesn't work the same as with gender. In the case of a white person, they can claim to be a minority all they want, but the minute it becomes a limitation (discrimination, etc.), they have the potential privilege of pulling back.

[@jenniferj2456]

Gender is EXACTLY PRECISELY the same.

[@dmac7707]

@@jenniferj2456 not true, you cant pull back from something that cant be switched to begin with

[@parkerhull7425]

But it is actually the same thing with gender. Let's say you are a biologically female athlete. You can claim to be a man all you want, but you're definitely not going to use it to play against professional biological men. You can pull back and only use that identity when it suits you. A related example is how Lia (formerly William) Thomas can (and did) rank 554th in the 200-yd free style and 64th in the 500-yd free style at an NCAA swim and win 1st place as a woman a couple years later with very similar times. Point is, you can absolutely pull back or push forward for personal gain. Not saying what he did was for personal gain, but I'm just saying you absolutely can with gender.

Being black comes from DNA and you can't fight DNA. We're not talking about government or social construct. We're talking about what your blood says. What your experience from birth says. It's wrong to steal someone elses identity everyone should know that by now. You can literally go to prison for it if it's government issued lol. My point is you said it yourself you did it to gain something you were lacking and that's just plain wrong.

Dr Phil I gotta say you are contradicting yourself in my opinion. You seem to buy into the fact that a man can say he identifies as a woman and vice versa, yet you completely destroy this woman. Saying she “misrepresented “ herself, she lied, she knows she’s white etc. well on yesterday’s episode you did NOT say those same things to the men on your stage who say they identify as women! Please explain the difference to me. She says she was born white but identifies as black correct? Ok. Can’t say one is a lie, and one is the truth!! Can’t say the truth is relative, EXCEPT for when it comes to race. That’s very hypocritical.
