I was randomly thinking about Rachel Dolezal today. I remember how infamous she became back in 2015, she was absolutely hounded by the press, had to resign from her various positions (as a lecturer, funnily enough) and she's still going.
She was basically a laughing stock who had all of her family dirty laundry aired for all the world to see, if I remember rightly it was her estranged parents who blabbed that she was actually white. Yet who really cares about it all now?
The likes of her and others that previous posters have mentioned all survived public humiliations and scandals. I wonder why Jason felt like he couldn't just ride it out, and wait for the attention to simmer down.

P.S. Dolezal has now legally changed her name to Nkechi Amare Diallo, and has an Only Fans for anyone who's interested 😅
Dare I ask what kind of only fans she has or is there only one kind..?

Jolyon Maugham from the Good Law Project has been forced to admit he misled a BBC journalist during an interview where she asked about having a donate to the GLP button on a Jason Arday open letter

This bit was interesting.
He’s clearly worried about funding for GLP, and the “bigger funders” he’s approached with his begging bowl are not having it. Can you blame them. Imagine being harangued by Jolyon pointing and squawking at you while he begs for cash. I can’t see that being very persuasive. Especially when they do their due diligence into GLP’s success rate.
Jo must be really missing that £££ tax KC income.

There was a documentary about Dolezal on Netflix a few years back (The Rachel Divide) - it was strangely fascinating. She was still apparently deeply in denial. I ended up feeling really sorry for her sons - both of them black (one I think was previously her adopted brother, the other her natural son) - because they could see what a circus it all was and appeared to be quite affected by it.

Now he’s trying to get people to unsubscribe from the press. While aggressively pointing at us and squeaking away in his weird voice. Don’t point, Jo, it’s rude. You weirdo.

But also if they had ignored the story, he would have accused them of something else. Why not go after how often pink news post about JKR?

Oh, that is utterly shameless! ‘We’re being disregarded by the Big Bad Money Men because we bravely stick up for vulnerable, relentlessly murdered trans folk and, as of a fortnight ago, Black people, and those nasty bigots hate us for it 😭😭😭😭

What ‘help’ are countless terrified Black people emailing Foxy McClubbington about, I wonder? And is this ‘bulging inbox’ in the same magnitude of thousands as Dr Jessica Taylor allegedly receives on a daily basis, I winder?

I can’t lie… there is a shrine to him at work - ‘in memory of Professor Jason Arday’ and I was briefly tempted to insert ‘a source close to’.



Ah, so you‘re familiar with Dr Jessica Taylor as well then? ;)
Judging by recent events, I think she's a shoo-in should any Oxbridge professorships become vacant in Psychology.

Anyone remember that male activist who was whiter than milk, but claimed to be black?

Are you thinking about Benjamin Butterworth who took a BAME place because his stepmum is black?
No, the guy I'm thinking of was American, I think? I've never even heard him speak, I just remember him being roasted on Twitter?

There have been a few high profile fakers falsely claiming Native American heritage too. Buffy Sainte Marie being a recent example.
Plenty of literary hoaxes (fake memoirs mostly), and plagiarism by journalists (Johann Hari, Stephen Glass, Jayson Blair), medical fakers, pregnancy fakers. And there was that odd case of a woman who claimed to have lost her fiancé in 9/11 and made herself a bit of a celebrity on the back of it (there was a book about her).
It’s very odd. I would be constantly afraid of being found out if I tried to pull something like that, but these people just plough on and double down on their delusion. It’s strangely fascinating.

There was an American actor who lied about being in the towers on 9/11,he was found out years later and it ruined his career. He talked a load in interviews about how surviving impacted his career choices https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Rannazzisi
