President Rachel Dolezal, a civil rights activist across Idaho and Washington and works part-time as an Africana Studies professor at Eastern Washington University, is now facing a city ethics probe for falsely claiming on an application.

Her parents(Larry and Ruthanne), who are estranged from their daughter, say they first found out she was claiming to be African American as they read a newspaper article about her 'some years ago'.They say they are Czech, Swedish and German. Her mum said she cut them off in order not to expose her true identity.
