The person now-formerly known as Jess La Bombera admitted "the truth, and the anti-Blackness of my lies."
An activist in New York City who has been described as “Afro-Latina” revealed that she is actually a white, Jewish woman who’s been pretending to be Black all along. It was a stunning admission that harkened back to Rachel Dolezal, the white woman who also faked being Black as the leader of an NAACP chapter in Washington State.
The person now-formerly known as Jess La Bombera on Thursday published an open letter of sorts on Medium under her real name — Jessica A. Krug — and admitted “the truth, and the anti-Blackness of my lies,” as her post is titled. Krug wrote about her “experience as a white Jewish child in suburban Kansas City under various assumed identities within a Blackness that I had no right to claim” and said she feigned “North African Blackness” before pretending to be a Black American and then finally settling on a “Caribbean rooted Bronx Blackness” identity.Family,
I am in a state of complete and utter shock and sadness. Jess La Bombera, an activist who I often deferred to and stepped aside and gave the mic to on this platform, just revealed that she is a white woman who has been pretending to be Black.

“I have not only claimed these identities as my own when I had absolutely no right to do so — when doing so is the very epitome of violence, of thievery and appropriation, of the myriad ways in which non-Black people continue to use and abuse Black identities and cultures — but I have formed intimate relationships with loving, compassionate people who have trusted and cared for me when I have deserved neither trust nor caring,” Krug wrote in part.
It was unclear what prompted her confession and why she pretended to be anything but the Jewish woman who she is.
Krug testified before the New York City Council in June under her Jess La Bombera alter ego and on multiple occasions referenced “Black and brown” people in reference to topics such as gentrification and racial inequality. Watch her testimonial below in which she uses graphic language.
Krug even called for herself to be “cancelled” and said she would “absolutely cancel myself.”
One tweet further identified Krug as an associate professor at George Washington University in Washington, D.C., with areas of expertise including Africa, Latin America and African American history.
Another tweet linked to an op-ed about Puerto Rico that she apparently recently penned for ESSENCE under her real name and described herself in part as imagining “the radical possibilities for Black freedom.” It appeared the ESSENCE article had been deactivated when this writer clicked on it Thursday afternoon.
While the situation was not entirely apples-to-apples when comparing her to Rachel Dolezal, both instances were cleary white women pretending to have a different racial heritage than the ones they were born with.

Correct. I shouldn’t have spoken the truth in such a manner that caused Brother VD shame and embarrassment, and for that I apologize.Not by the standard definition, IIRC. I think he has his own beliefs where some may coincide? I'm pretty sure he doesn't like Christianity as an organized religion.Tommy, can you hear me?

When my dad died we no longer had an address or representative in FL. So about 10? 15 years ago we reorganized our business in Texas. My wife had been 50% co-owner of our company and worked exclusively for it, and had been a billable consultant for it, for 10+ years prior to that. The Texas lawyer we hired suggested we set it up so my wife who is hispanic has 51% instead of 50%. Any business that has significant minority ownership should be organized that way if possible. Perfectly above board.
But, virtually all of our business comes from repeat business or word of mouth or my wife's previous sales and event organizing work. We have not had a government contract. We have never had any contract where they favor minorities. We have never applied for any such contracts. We have never applied for the status as a minority business which is required to be favored in such contracts. We have no need for it. Nor can I imagine how we ever will.

Why do you say this if there is no benefit?False.You claimed you did before we roasted you for it

Because there can be a benefit if you have minority ownership and seek out government contracts and you fill out all the paperwork and apply to be a minority business. If thats what you wanted it would be like not taking any deductions on your taxes. Dont be stupid.Why do you say this if there is no benefit?False.

But thats not our market. We mostly work for big corporations.... Amex, Viacom, US Steel, etc ...and the companies almost always call us because work we have done in a niche market. We have never answered RFPs or sent out our resumes to a job listing much less applied for government contracts.
