Daily Talker: NAACP Controversy

We were expected to hear from the embattled leader of the NAACP in Spokane, Washington Monday.

But Rachel Dolezal has canceled a meeting where she was expected to speak out about her racial identity.

Her parents have said the 37-year-old activist is white and has falsely portrayed herself as black for years.

Dolezal has been the head of the Spokane NAACP chapter for about 6 months.

Some are planning a demonstration tonight calling on Dolezal to step down.

One member of the chapter says it's not about race but integrity. She says Dolezal clearly lacks integrity and credibility.

What do you think about the controversy and should Dolezal step down?
