AM: Dolezal nearly homeless

In this July 24, 2009, file photo, Rachel Dolezal, a leader of the Human Rights Education Institute, stands in front of a mural she painted at the institute's offices in Coeur d'Alene. Dolezal tells Britain's The Guardian newspaper for a story published online Feb. 25, 2017, that she can't find a job and she is near homelessness. Dolezal stepped down from her post as the leader of the Spokane, Washington, chapter of the NAACP in 2015 amid criticism that she was passing herself off as black.
