We all know the Rachel Dolezal story, but do we?

It was started because her adoptive sister filed charges against her bio brother for rape. She supported her and substantiated it because he abused her too. He hired a p.i. to discredit her. P.i. told a reporter of NAACP story...
BOOM! The story that blows up is she’s “transracial” and other stories fall out of the woodwork. She sued Howard for discrimination based on her pregnancy but not the story told.

She gets discredited as a witness in the sexual assault case against her brother. Charges dropped.
Thing is, we only got the tale from the point when the reporter contacted by the brother on rape charges runs into her on the street. It’s wild.
That’s how the media and social media were used to set a rapist free. It’s all about who tells the story.
And her parents supported her brother. Watch their interviews with that in mind.
Parents. Adoptive parents of 4 Black children. Her parents. Who adopted 4 Black children. White bio son rapes their daughters. Plural! They supported the rapist. The lede was buried!
