I thought her 15 minutes were up, but VF has renewed that contract. From the Vanity Fair interview:
"And yet, Dolezal’s claim on black womanhood still seems to be non-negotiable. Even in conversation with an actual black woman on the other end of the line or sitting in her cozy home, Dolezal unequivocally identifies as black. (Never mind the ancestry.com heritage test that arrived on her doorstep the day I visited.)"

So as long as you identify as something you're not all is forgiven.
I am going to identify as a pimply face 15 year old who thinks he's a girl so I can shower in the girls locker room.

It's so easy to poke fun ... of course, some people just beg for it.
(What was she thinking?)
