In the wake of being exposed as calling herself “white” without a hijab and a “person of color” with a hijab, Linda Sarsour has doubled down, saying, “I’m Palestinian, if I want to say ‘I’m Black,’ – I’m Black!,” thereby illustrating the Left’s firm commitment to fantasy over reality. Linda will tell you that Islam is a religion of peace, too.
“Sarsour Claims, ‘If I Want To Say I’m Black, I’m Black,'” by Hank Berrien, Daily Wire, September 8, 2017 (thanks to the Geller Report):
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:

But that apparently wasn’t enough for her to launch her rise among leftists; she had to widen her range:

Sarsour’s here today, gone tomorrow approach to reality is endemic among those on the Left, for whom “self-identification” trumps biological reality (gender theory, anyone?) or the truth about one’s ancestry. The idea for many on the Left is that by identifying with a supposedly-oppressed group one can claim they share that group’s experiences (see, e.g., Rachel Dolezal)….
RonaldB says
Actually, Sarsours new identity is beneficial to all concerned.
The organizations she affiliates with have a two-fer: they can affiliate with Muslims and with blacks for half the work they previously had to put in and half the arrogance they previously had to endure.
If Sarsour actually does any productive work at this point, on which I have my doubts, her employer can also check two boxes: Muslim and black, and only have to put up with one incompetent, unreliable, ill-natured employee instead of two. (Note I am speaking of blacks hired for affirmative action purposes).
So, Sarsours new identity has many upsides. I can’t see a downside, really.
rabrooks says
I can! We already have enough dumb-ass real blacks, we don’t need any idiotic imitators adding to the problem. Seems if there is such an overabundance of stupid white people, she should just accept it and work to improve herself.
Dan says
No freaking wonder she, and any idiot who believes “If I think (I’m another race) therefor I am” can’t follow logic paths.
Dan says
No wonder she, and any idiot who believes “I think (I’m another race) therefor I am.) can’t follow any type of logic path.
RAB says
This poor woman needs help. Can anyone recommend a good psychiatrist for her? The Descartes maxim “cogito ergo sum” (I think, therefore I am) has become “I feel, therefore I am.”
ItsReallyQuiteClear says
So, would Sarsour endorse the few voices in Islam, who advocate for reform, as being considered Muslims, and not apostates? Or gay Muslims being considered Muslims, rather than deserving to be killed? Of course not, because what she really believes, and what she has said before, is that at the end of the day (according to Islamic doctrine) it’s all — and only — about Islam.
This was a reference to her speech at the Islamic Society of North America conference in July, 2017, when she said (paraphrased) that the number one priority of the Muslim community was to protect their women and children, but even more important than that was to serve Allah. Of course, she didn’t have to say that, because the Quran said it, 1400 years before Sarsour did…
So, her comment was almost a form of shirk, but I suppose she gets a pass, thanks to taqiyya.
Westman says
Researchers at Stanford University have developed an AI program for which they are claiming 81% accuracy in identifying gay males from a single photo and 91% accuracy with 5 photos. They claim 74% and 83% for identifying gay women under the same conditions. Do they dare turn their efforts to determining race so the world may know the real “gender” and “race” of Sarour? Or, will it break the machine?
It has always been a tradition that aspiring clowns must develop their own distinct face appearance that readily identifies them. This penguin appearance may inspire a completely new approach.
Sarsour seems to be drifting toward a lack of restraint, reminiscent of preacher Jim Bakker, that is likely to ultimately undermine her efforts and credibility.
gravenimage says
Jim Bakker was quite personally disgusting, but he was not working to oppress and conquer us, as is the appalling Linda Sarsour on behalf of Islam.
John A. Marre says
Someone with a lot of money and hate is financing this woman’s campaign against the USA.
The Istanbulian says
So who did Arabs enslave out of east Africa for a millennia – the Sarsours?
Shmooviyet says
As Spock would say: “Fascinating.”
Such a raging mass of self-loathing under those multiple layers of clothing, concealer and foundation! Imagine Sarsour at the makeup counter, cursing the poor consultant who suggests the wrong shade on a day when Linda’s ‘feeling black’..
The “cultural appropriation” that leftists screech about is acceptable– IF the victim group’s members are doing the appropriatin’.
Bev says
…and if I want to say you’re crazy, you’re crazy. Girl you are seriously crazy. Must be that your mom and dad were first cousins, so I know you can’t help it. But you really should seek help.
Jack Holan says
White, Black, Palestinian the Flash in the Pan or Buzz Word that garner the most sympathy and numbers at the moment; that is all the Left and Muslim Brotherhood (all other organizations are merely off-shoots) care about in this War.
Ms Sarsour probably believes her Grandparents that they enjoyed an idealic life in the Village until the Israelis came. The dementia memory of her grandparents and the fact that she is no more Palestinian then the Man on the Moon keeps this War going.
You must ask yourself who pays ms Sarsours pay check so she ca travel the country, afford, ZiPhones, Tablets, and many more luxuries. I hope charitable contributions for restoration of Jewish Cemetaries descecrated by Anti-Semitic Vandalim.
Jack Holan says
Where does Linda Sarsour get her money and where Is the transparency?
Paul says
Another example of reality imitating movies and TV. First the was The Truman Show, and within a year, Big Brother, followed by a host of “reality” shows. Then there was Sascha Baron Cohen, a white Jew with his imitation of a London Black/Jamaican hip-hopper in his brilliant series Ali G., and now we have Sarsour pretending to be a “person of color”.
FYI says
Poor Linda.If she is unable to differentiate between God and allah then of course she will have difficulty knowing the difference between White and Black.
She really needs to wear the burqa too:it’s time isn’t it?
PRCS says
“If she is unable to differentiate between God and allah”
Muslims don’t differentiate because they believe the god of Judaism, Christianity and Islam are all one and the same.
St. Michael Defend Us says
Then why do they scream “allahu ackbar” when killing Jews and Christians?
PRCS says
Recitation of Al-Fatihah (Qur’an Surah 1)
Guide us to the straight path, the path of those whom You have favored,
Not of those who have incurred your wrath, nor of those who have gone astray.
In other words, Jews and Christians.
*The phrase ‘those who have incurred your wrath” comes from Surah 2:61 which says,
Shame and misery were stamped upon [the Israelites] and they incurred the wrath of Allah; because they disbelieved Allah’s signs and slew His prophets unjustly; because they were rebels and transgressors.
*The phrase “those who have gone astray” comes from Surah 4:44 which says,
Consider those to whom a portion of the Scriptures was given [i.e., Christians]. They purchase error for themselves and wish to see you go astray.

‘Allahu Akbar’: It Means Almost Everything — Except What The Establishment Media Says
“Media outlets routinely mangle the true meaning of “Allahu akbar,” the ubiquitous battle cry of Islamic jihadists as they commit mass murder.
The war-cry is mistranslated in the Western media as “God is great.” But the actual meaning is “Allah is greater,” meaning Allah Is Greater Than Your God or Government.
It is the aggressive declaration that Allah and Islam are dominant over every other form of government, religion, law or ethic, which is why Islamic jihadists in the midst of killing infidels so often shout it.
One primary purpose of shouting is to “strike terror in the hearts of the enemies of Allah.””

LeftisruiningCanada says
When they say it, it’s true. And not just ” true for me” true, but objectively true.
Santa Voorhees says
That is the point! If the Left is going to take Sarsour’s statement as true, then they cannot deny that Isis is islamic because they say it.
Or will this logic not apply to Isis?
LeftisruiningCanada says
Well that’s just too much joined up thinking, so don’t let’s expect any large media operation to give it air

That would be consistent. Can’t have consistency if it spoils the narrative.

Perhaps Linda should run for president of the NAACP. But, it didn’t work out so well for another “black white” compulsive liar, Rachel Dolezal.
http://www.cnn.com/2015/06/15/us/washington-rachel-dolezal-naacp/index.html
Perhaps this is what it means to have a “checkered past.”
Reminds me of a favorite scene from a group of inept British Crusaders from not too long ago. Changing your (favorite) color can be fatal…

Rachel Dolezal may have been self-hating and delusional, but at least she was not bent on forcing everyone to submit to brutal Islam.
Voytek Gagalka says
Of course “Islam is a religion of peace”: But ONLY for BELIEVERS! That is only to those between them who will successfully adhere to larger and more stronger gang (“the tribe”) dictating what Islam is, who is “true” Muslim, a gang which will be able to defend them from other fractions and competing gangs. If it will happen that they would by chance and wrong choice belong to the wrong group, however, all bets are off, and in that case Islam will prove once again to be anything but “religion of peace.”
LeftisruiningCanada says
Poor deluded woman has been led astray by the wests two worst enemies, Islam and that weird brand of post modern foolishness we usually call The Left. That a single person can even hold to both is a demonstration of how badly post modernism can rot a brain. Caveat emptor!
Japetto Donatelli says
“If I want to say ‘I’m Black,’ I’m Black!”
Ridiculous statements like that are an attempt by her to look like the poor, oppressed muslim desperately defending her right to be free. The absurdity of her remark is meant to convey by implication the absurd level of her oppressed condition.[sic] Poor girl, she’s so oppressed that she must resort to crazy hyperbole as a cry for help. I guess we’re all supposed to gasp at her hurt feelings and desperate struggle to be free.
But muslims aren’t the oppressed ones, they are the ones who are raping, murdering, and terrorizing. Muslims are the benefactors of the west’s humanitarian compassion. If multiculturalism isn’t working with muslims then it’s because they don’t want it to work. This woman Sarsour and other islamists like her aren’t fighting for equal rights or minorities. She’s fighting for islamic supremacy which ultimately means the destruction of our nation and freedoms. If you are a Christian or Jew, or Hindu, or anything other than muslim, then know this, Sarsour is fighting to enslave the intellectual and spiritual future of your kids. Now I don’t know how that makes you feel, but that makes me angry as hell.

You can want to say you’re black.
You can even say you’re black.
But unless you are black, you’re still
not black!
I know there is a spectrum between white and black due
to mixing races, or living in a certain geography that certain
skin colors develop under (more tan, less tan, etc.) and as a
result some are more in the middle and that is another thing.
But this woman is nowhere near the ‘black’ end of anything except ideology.
I could say “I’m rich,” but will I be rich?!
Nope. And you really won’t be, no matter how nice it may seem.
You cannot define your own reality. Sorry, I know, bursted bubble # 103 for
the spoiled brat snowflake millennial generation!
You can select certain things, you can work hard to improve certain things,
or take a pill, etc.
But you cannot snap your fingers and become rich, or black, or god, or that sort of thing.

Linda’s muslim agenda likely comes from CAIR; an organization that would love to see extreme racial discord and racial violence in the USA.
If she says so, maybe next she will be a Black Hispanic man in a hijab.
Wellington says
The best you can say about Linda Sarsour is that she is a very confused human being. Yes, this is the very best you can say about this sadly deficient (and extra annoying) person.
Frankly, though, I think she is more than just “very confused.” Indeed, something far worse than this; I’m thinking here something along the lines of a malevolent parasite, as Islam in toto has been for some 1400 years now. And thus, in microcosm, she is bad news for America, for the West in general, for freedom. All very Islamic.
mortimer says
Muslim women who LOVE their enslavement are perfect examples of the ISLAMIC STOCKHOLM SYNDROME. Such women IDENTIFY with their male oppressors’ point of view so that their lives will be spared. Such women enslave and abuse other women and feel righteous about doing so. They need to believe that they are righteous because they are such traitors to their sex and to humanity.
Wellington says
Agreed, mortimer. No sensible and informed woman should be a Muslim (ditto for blacks, whether female or male).
What a scam Islam is. Arguably the greatest scam of all time. And mankind continues to pay a very high price for this scam of scams. No doubt.
JawsV says
It’s the hoax of all time. Muhammed is Allah. Like “Oz” is really a man behind a curtain. To me that describes Allah and Muhammed 100%.

Llinda Sarsour is white through the MATERNAL LINE … from all those European SLAVE WOMEN who were RAPED by jihadists.
