Rachel Dolezal just won’t let up when it comes to being in the spotlight.

The controversial former NAACP president set Twitter on fire after news broke that she’d be releasing a new memoir titled In Full Color: Finding My Place in a Black and White World. Dolezal gained national attention last year when she was pressured to step down from her post as president of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP for misrepresenting her race.

The memoir reportedly charts Rachel’s path from a child of White evangelical parents to an activist who identifies as Black. Black Twitter didn’t let that slide without saying their piece, of course:

The Amazon.com description says the memoir explores “the path that led her from being a child of white evangelical parents to a NAACP chapter president and respected educator and activist who identified as Black.” Dolezal will also talk about “the deep emotional bond she formed with her four adopted black siblings” and how she felt like she fit in while living in Black neighborhoods in Mississippi and Washington, D.C.

In Full Color: Finding My Place in a Black and White World is now available for pre-order on Amazon.
