It's kind of interesting that these people feel the need to lie about their racial history to get a voice in these kinds of areas. Is it confirmed the dad is white or is it still a bit of a rumormonger thing at this point?
Seems to have a lot more evidence than just rumormongering since they tracked down the guy who is his father on his birth cert and he's totes white, but maybe that's not his real father or whatever. Racial identity is a subjective thing, etc.


But telling a shitload of lies about yourself and your history while promoting a charity you manage is deeply suspect behavior.

smh goons

Literally Monday he published a blog about Bernie's MTP interview from Sunday that was full of easily provable lies and misinformation, and it was promoted on the front page (and via email blast) by probably the biggest liberal blog community on the internet much to the dismay of a large portion of that community.

This guy has gone out of his way on more than one occasion to try and damage Bernie's campaign with this bullshit, so yeah I'm feeling some schadenfreude right now.

He's repeatedly stated that the stories are all lies but tbh it seems kind of weird he won't actually say anything concrete or affirmative about his ancestry, reminds of that spokane lady who just tried to dodge the question for as long as possible.

Like on one hand I feel like he shouldn't actually have to answer this, like assuming he's telling the truth and his dad is black then he must be pretty exasperated having to prove his heritage all the time to people who think he doesn't look black enough. On the other hand can't he just tweet something to that effect "yes I'm black and I'm tired of having to..." and call it good?

To be fair, if he has smoking gun evidence (like hey my dad wasn't born in Kentucky, he's black as hell and here's a picture of him), he's going to build up to it, he's not going to blow the load right away.

I'm legit surprised so many people seem to think it's impossible the guy is biracial though. Like straightup one of my best friends throughout middle and high school had his exact skin color, it's not really that uncommon biracial people to be passably white.

from what I understand his relatives have all been warned and have made their facebooks hidden, which probably isn't a bad idea considering that rabid fans of rightwing media are probably pretty dangerous.

However, unless Breitbart/The Blaze photoshopped some poo poo (which isn't out of the question) they almost certainly have identified his father as being a white man, and he himself is on record stating that his mom is white.

the girl from flashdance is half black but looks white as hell, ditto rashida jones (though she more wop-y looking)

dont most african-americans have some european ancestry in general, if you an american halfrican you probably have more european ancestry than black

They should start new scholarships for people of color if they're so concerned. Don't hold your breath.

Because then people would ask "so who is your dad then?" and he's not ready to answer that.


Rachael Dolezal got tripped up because she was on the outs with her family, so when they got asked about her they were just like "lol she white". Kinda what happens when you write that your dad used a baboon whip on you. King looks like he's still good with his family so even if he's been lying they'll just refuse to answer anything from the media. (Helps that most of the media behind this are scum.)

The guy has recognized that the fake racial hate crime is what will really sink him, so that's what he's doubling down on right now. He's gonna need to produce some hard evidence on that one.
