White woman famous for calling herself black is fired for having an Onlyfans account

Rachel Dolezal The White woman and former president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in the United States, which generated controversy almost 10 years ago for falsely claiming to be black he was fired from his position in an Arizona school district because of your Onlyfans account .

Dolezal worked in the Catalina Foothills School District as an after-school instructor, but was fired this week after administrators learned of her presence on Onlyfans, a subscription platform that offers adult content.

At the time of publication, a link to an OnlyFans account was accessible through the bio of Dolezal's verified Instagram account. The linked Onlyfans account, updated on February 14, blocked images for non-subscribers but contained identifying information and captions alluding to adult content and “nudity.”

“Welcome to my Onlyfans page, where I post creative content and give fans a more intimate look into my life,” the page read.

Julie Farbarik, district director of community and alumni relations, told CNN affiliate KVOA that the posts are “contrary to the 'Use of Social Media by District Employees' policy and our district ethics policy.” Farbarik also confirmed Dolezal's dismissal.

A CNN reached out to Dolezal, unsuccessfully, for comment.

From white to black

Dolezal made headlines in 2015 when it was revealed that despite being a leader in the NAACP and claiming detailed heritage as a person of color, Dolezal's parents were both white with European ancestry. In the media storm that followed, Dolezal never denied her white heritage, but stated that she still “identifies as black.”

Dolezal’s enduring presence in the media has sparked “angry” conversations about identity and race. In an interview with CNN in 2017, she said she believes race is a “social construct.”

Despite widespread derision, Dolezal did not abandon her supposed identity after her true heritage was revealed. In 2016, he legally changed his name to Nkechi Amare Diallo. The name Nkechi is a shortened Igbo name of Nigerian origin and means “gift from God”.

At the time, she said she would also continue to use the name Rachel Dolezal, and appears to alternate between the two names on her various social media accounts. Her apparent OnlyFans account is named Rachel Dolezal.

Onlyfans and layoffs

Onlyfans is a social media platform where content creators post photos and videos and may charge users a fee to access them. It is generally known as a place to post explicit content.

Their growing popularity has led to numerous cases of being fired for being OnlyFans creators, including several teachers. Incidents like this have raised questions about employment discrimination, the stigma of sex work and the effects of the informal economy.

A 2017 profile of Dolezal in The Guardian stated that, at the time, Dolezal was “unemployed” and “feeding her family on food stamps,” although she only had opportunities in “reality television and pornography.”

However, Dolezal continued to appear in the public eye. In 2017, she published a memoir titled “In Full Color: Finding My Place in a Black and White World.” She also promotes her art on social media and produces a podcast called “Periferias”.

The podcast description says the show's logo was created by Dolezal and depicts Josephine Beall Willson Bruce, a late 19th and early 20th century black women's rights activist and “a multicultural historical figure who was often seen as white”.
