New in PJ Media:
Raquel Evita Saraswati knows how to play the game, right down to her name itself, with its pleasing multiethnic mélange and artful evocation of Leftist icon Evita Perón. The American Friends Service Committee, a hard-Left organization peddling authoritarianism and dependence upon the all-powerful state under the guise of “social justice,” was likely thrilled when Saraswati applied to be its Chief Equity, Inclusion, and Culture Officer. But then matters took a dark turn, or more precisely, a light turn.
A member of the search committee that ended up hiring Saraswati at the Friends Committee, Oskar Pierre Castro, recounts that during the interview process, Saraswati had represented herself as a “queer, Muslim, multiethnic woman.” With this trifecta of wokeness and victimhood, Saraswati couldn’t miss, and of course, she got the job. “It really touched all the points,” Castro remarked of Saraswati’s background. But now it has come to light that contrary to her claims, she is infected with the Left’s original sin: Raquel Evita Saraswati was born Rachel Elizabeth Seidel, and is as white as the native population of Switzerland.
The revelation of Saraswati’s true ethnicity has been like sandpaper upon the hitherto smooth, complacently Leftist surface of the American Friends Service Committee, with these people of love and tolerance now eyeing one another suspiciously over their tofu and soybean salads: now the organization’s other employees are afraid that they’ve been infiltrated. According to a Thursday report in The Intercept, the fact that their hijab-wearing multiethnic Muslima has turned out to be white has led some inside the Friends Committee to suspect that she is “working on behalf of groups seeking to undermine their organization.” After all, her position “gives her access to the files of dozens of the organization’s staff and volunteers.”
Of course! Why else would Saraswati have lied about her background? It couldn’t be because being white has been so demonized and stigmatized on the Left that all manner of white folks, from Elizabeth Warren to Shaun King to Hilaria Baldwin to Linda Sarsour, are claiming not to be “people of color,” could it? Nah, that couldn’t be it. Saraswati must be a double agent! She must be secretly working for some white supremacist group, right?
Saraswati, according to The Intercept, “for years has encouraged people to believe that she is a woman of color, including Latina as well as of South Asian and Arab descent.” But Raquel/Rachel’s mom, Carol Perone, was unequivocal: “I call her Rachel. I don’t know why she’s doing what she’s doing.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

islam is all about lying. Pretending that being homosexual is ‘just another lifestyle,’ is of course, lying; pretense is after all, untruth. This liar probably believes it’s okay to lie about her skin color and taking a fake name in order to deceive…again lying.
Those who make the claim that Whites are all bad all of the time, and are constantly making racist trouble for everyone else, really are asking for people to lie to them.

Interesting how none of her names are muslim. Raquel and Evita are Latina names, and Saraswati a Hindu name. Shouldn’t her name be something like Raziya Erdogan Siddique, or something along those lines? Nobody who’s introduced to her w/ either her real name or her assumed one will think that she’s muslim
However, why not send her to, say, Gaza, so that she can find out for herself how queer, multiethnic people are treated? 😈

Total lack of integrity from this lying piece of crap. What the hell is wrong with creatures like this? Maybe they think that, in this woke age, among her fellow left wing wankers, being a white person is just too boring (just too white bread and mundane a life, blah, blah). By the way, reading this report about this lying piece of crap (who’ll probably be disowned now by her left wing wanker buddies for being a terrible white person) brought to my mind something about some woman, was it the wife of Alec Baldwin?, who made up some story about being Hispanic. I have a very vague memory of it happening. Must be some kind of ethnic chic these days since white people are so terrible. There are some weird people around, that’s for sure.

tim, stupid women have been doing this for some time. A young woman, I believe from Washinton State, some years ago, came out with the claim that she is Black…and her parents both said, ‘no way,’ and her skin color said the same, but she insisted. she’s black.
and warren claiming to be Native American.
And females of “color” such as aoc, tlaib and elmi, alias omar, claiming to have intelligence. Just can’t count them all these days…making false claims and the rest of us are supposed to just accept everything they say as Truth.
tim gallagher says
That’s right, somehistory. I remember hearing commentators out here mentioning that politician, Warren, claiming that she had American Indian blood or some such thing. Strange world these days, they must do this so as to claim a place in the victim category that so many people seem to want to be part of in these woke times. They must think that there is some kind of advantage, some brownie points for them, by carrying on with this bullshit. People who are so loose with the truth are pretty low types of human beings.

tim,
Elizabeth “Pocahontas” Warren has no more Native American blood than the average white person in the United States.
She’s a fake, a phony, and a fraud.

James, thanks for that. I vaguely remembered this scam that Warren had tried to perpetrate being mentioned by the commentators on Sky News and I recall seeing her, clearly a white woman as far as I was concerned, and thinking, “She must be kidding’. Sometimes it surprises me that scam artists like her think, in this modern age, that they will actually get away with such nonsense. Of course, I imagine the left wing media would have tried to cover up for her if she happens to be on the left side of politics. They have no scruples and no integrity at all. If they are fellow left wingers, the left will try and cover up for anything at all. On a different topic, since you are in the USA, I have a question about Joe Biden’s very public sniffing of young girls’ hair, making them very uncomfortable from video clips I have seen. How was this vile behaviour covered up? Any media that helped to cover up this extreme creepiness must be appalling people, or didn’t the average American care about such weird, creepy behaviour. As I have said a few times, if the average Australian saw this creepy behaviour, and it seems so public, I’m pretty sure that Biden’s political career would have ended right there and then out here.
James Lincoln says
tim,
The Leftist lamestream media has gone out of its way to downplay Creepy Joe’s sniffing and touching of young girls. He’s portrayed as an “innocent grandfather”.
The video evidence still remains, however on YouTube and Rumble.
That being said, his Leftist supporters do not seem to care.

Oh, this is gold.
lied about her ethnicity, yup, we see that quite often, people will do it for various reasons.
This then begs the question, what else did she lie about?
Is she queer?
Is she a mudslime?
Is she multi ethnic? and the simplest and most important one,
Did she do all this because of the pay packet and power the job comes with?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
If she’s a mudslime, she had to have converted to it

To them it w must have been like sitting on a tack in their chair or having ice water poured over their heads
