(Portmanteau of Wig + Negress; only a Negress by virtue of an assumed wig.)
Written with the short "i" of "wig," but pronounced with the long "e" of "Negress."
A non-Black (ok, typically white) woman who adopts a Black persona, fashion, language, cultural identity, etc, the word covering a range of meanings from the literal adoption of artificial Black hair-styles, all the way through the large-scale Performance Art of Rachel Dolezal and Jessica Krug, who built careers on assumed Black identities.
Rachel Dolezal's wigress life-style is apparently not unique; see Jim Goad's comments about Jessica Krug.
"Suddenly, last week—rumors suggest she was being pressured to either out herself or face the rigors of a thorough public woke-mob outing—she took off the Coon Mask and confessed that she was just a self-hating Jewish girl from Kansas City. In an aggressively self-flagellating blog post titled “The Truth, and the Anti-Black Violence of My Lies,” Krug confessed that since she somehow inflicted “violence” on people by being a female wigger—wegress?—and also since “I don’t believe that any anti-Black life has inherent value,” she no longer exists in any meaningful way:"
