Remember, Snopes is a liberal rag. It holds no candle to screenshots of tweets that make the rounds on r/The_Donald.

Facts have a liberal bias.

Jessica Krug, the GW University professor who pretended to be Black, has resigned

A George Washington University professor who provoked outrage after admitting that she pretended to be Black has quit her job, school officials said Wednesday.

Jessica Krug, a 38-year-old African history professor at GWU, was pulled from teaching duties amid calls for her to step down after she admitted to lying about her race in a Medium blog post on Sept. 3.

Krug, who is actually White and Jewish, said she had over the course of her adult life, “assumed identities within a Blackness that I had no right to claim: first North African Blackness, then US rooted Blackness, then Caribbean rooted Bronx Blackness.”

“I am not a culture vulture. I am a culture leech,” she said.

GWU wrote on Twitter Wednesday that Krug has “resigned her position, effective immediately.”

“Her classes for this semester will be taught by other faculty members, and students in those courses will receive additional information this week.”

Krug’s resignation comes after the school announced last Friday that she will not be teaching in the fall semester.

Many of Krug’s colleagues said they were “shocked and appalled” by her having lied about her identity for her entire career.

“With what she has termed her ‘audaciously deceptive’ appropriation of an Afri-Caribbean identity, she has betrayed the trust of countless current and former students, fellow scholars of Africana Studies… as well as community activists in New York City and beyond,” they said in a joint statement.

The university has urged students who have been affected by the situation to seek assistance from the school’s resources.

“Please know that we are taking this situation seriously and are here to support our community,” the school said.

I posted it because of the value of the message.  That it’s not from an actual relative is completely unfortunate, but the message of defending and supporting this thug by so many people while also ignoring the woman he victimized is even more egregious to me.

Obviously, Blake needed the car and the pussy. The cops failed to consider his needs before they attempted to arrest him. Most NBA superstars are intelectual giants and better able empathize with someone of Blake’s stature.

I imagine there’s gonna be several legal challenges over this.

Thanks for sharing this. I've been wondering for days what Vinny from Twitter's take on this was.

When I was in high school there was a dude who went by the name Vinny Bombino.  Turned out his name was Craig Silverman and he wasn’t Italian, he was just Jewish.  I’ve never forgotten that.

Well Craig is a terrible name so I can't blame him for that. The only thing worse would be combining it with some long ass Greek last name.

The seven “comrades” — including wealthy Upper East Sider Clara Kraebber — had their mugshots tweeted out by the NYPD early Wednesday, days after their arrests for smashing storefront windows in the Flatiron District.

The so-called revolutionaries who were busted for rioting at a New Afrikan Black Panther Party rally took a break from their yacht club lives and modeling careers to be a part of the mayhem.

So privileged kids that are really confused.

Tank, this is the dumbest form of mental gymnastics I've seen here in a while.

Just admit you posted something stupid and fake.

Oh no you didn't.

This is some bullshit Tdawg. That's no mental gymnastics, it's common sense because the message is factual. The fact that the messenger is some sweaty LARPer is what you choose to grasp onto.

I wonder if Tdawg is not really an actual dog, but a human posting under that name.

If that’s true, should we all discredit any of his CONTENT as irrelevant nonsense?

Well, you and the cons have chosen to grasp onto his criminal history rather than the fact he was shot in the back 7 times.

Bullshit, indeed.

I mean if the guy was going for a knife on his floorboard then what do you expect?

I find it interesting that it seems more often than not these BLM martyrs turn out to actually be pieces of shit.

Also, nice pivot. Kamala Harris and others seem to think of him as a hero for some reason.

Well, if anyone thinks he's "a hero" then they're retarded. 

But he was shot in the back 7 times. That's not a "pivot". That's literally the reason you even know his name or his criminal record.
