@amr1787 @HenryLouisGates @washingtonian We miss Wilhelmina dearly. Visit DaughterDialogues.com/Daughters to see her bio and a video in which she talks about the black members in the DAR

@HenryLouisGates @washingtonian Recent NY State Regent, Wilhelmena Kelly, was American of African descent. NY has many proud members of African descent, esp. Increase Carpenter and NYC chapters have multiple members. Natl Convention recently honored Katherine Johnson. DAR has a long list of black soldiers.

@NotGeauxGabby You correct, not sure why the assumption that the women are trying to pass. The black and members of color are open and proud of their ethnicity. Visit DaughterDialogues.com/Daughters to see the many brown faces, none who are trying to pass for white.

@elb3 The black and members of color are open and proud of their ethnicity. There is no evidence of widespread passing for white. Visit DaughterDialogues.com/Daughters to see the many brown faces, none who are trying to pass for white.

@HenryLouisGates @washingtonian But don’t they keep it on the down-low so nobody has to know they are passing for white?

@NotGeauxGabby You are correct. The black and members of color are open and proud of their ethnicity. There is no evidence of widespread passing for white.
