A lot of people have made up their minds about Rachel Dolezal. But
none of them know her real story. In June 2015, the media "outed"
Rachel Dolezal as a white woman who had knowingly been "passing" as
Black. When asked if she were African American during an interview
about the hate crimes directed at her and her family, she hesitated
before ending the interview and walking away. Some interpreted her
reluctance to respond and hasty departure as dishonesty, while
others assumed she lacked a reasonable explanation for the almost
unprecedented way she identified herself. What determines your
race? Is it your DNA? The community in which you were raised? The
way others see you or the way you see yourself? With In Full Color,
Rachel Dolezal describes the path that led her from being a child
of white evangelical parents to an NAACP chapter president and
respected educator and activist who identifies as Black. Along the
way, she recounts the deep emotional bond she formed with her four
adopted Black siblings, the sense of belonging she felt while
living in Black communities in Jackson, Mississippi, and
Washington, DC, and the experiences that have shaped her along the
way.
