Leftist icon Linda Sarsour proved that when it comes to looking to advance her career, she’s as opportunistic as they come, as she can, chameleon-like, simply change the color of her skin at will so she can identify as whatever oppressed group fits her fancy.
There was a time when Sarsour claimed she was white:
“When I wasn’t wearing hijab I was just some ordinary white girl.” - @lsarsour
Linda Sarsour does it again. “At the end of the day it’s self-identification. I’m Palestinian, if I want to say ‘I’m Black,’ - I’m Black!”
Yet if anyone can claim to identify as a member of another group, why were the owners of a Mexican restaurant, who were white, hounded out of business for their “cultural appropriation”? In fact, how do leftists reconcile “cultural appropriation” with “self-identification”? And why shouldn’t whites simply “self-identify” as people of color in order to take advantage of affirmative action avenues?
If Sarsour can climb the ladder of political power by being all things to all people, does truth matter anymore?
Silly question.
