Rachel Dolezal: One Year After Controversy, Activist Says She Has No Regrets And Is Writing Book On Racial Identity

A year ago, Rachel Dolezal found herself in the middle of a national media frenzy after insisting she identified as a black woman despite being born to a white family. Dolezal first became a punch line to jokes on social media, then drew the ire of people around the country and finally stepped down as president of the NAACP chapter in Spokane, Washington. Now, she is “ready to move on” from the controversy, she said on NBC’s “Today” show Tuesday morning.
