Rachel Dolezal Is Back In The News After Getting Fired From Teaching Job Over OnlyFans Account

Dolezal, who apparently changed her name to Nkechi Diallo, lost her teaching job in Tucson, Arizona, after her explicit OnlyFans account was discovered.

Rachel Dolezal was fired from her job as an after-school instructor for children at Catalina Foothills School District in Tucson, Arizona for having explicit photos of her on OnlyFans.

Dolezal, who now goes by Nkechi Diallo, was embroiled in controversy back in 2014 when she was accused of cultural misappropriation by presenting herself as Black despite being born to White parents while serving as President of the NAACP in Spokane, Washington.


She subsequently resigned from her position at the NAACP and was also fired from her position as an instructor of Africana studies at Eastern Washington University amid the backlash for lying about her race.

Dolezal had a public social media page with a link to the amateur adult entertainment site OnlyFans that appeared to be operated by her. Explicit content from the page was shared with other sites, including Reddit.

It is unclear if the images were shared by her.

Julie Farbarik, the Foothills School District's Director of Alumni & Community Relations, confirmed Dolezal's termination in an email sent to a local news station.

It read:

"We only learned of Ms. Nkechi Diallo's OnlyFans social media posts yesterday afternoon."
"Her posts are contrary to our district's 'Use of Social Media by District Employees' policy (attached) and our staff ethics policy."
"She is no longer employed by the Catalina Foothills School District."

Those who remember Dolezal for her scandalous history weren't expecting to hear the new updates.





People had questions about her employment.




It's a lot to unpack.


According to the Associated Press, Dolezal legally changed her name in 2016 to a Nigerian phrase that meant "gift of God."

She said she was forced to change her name to improve her chances of employment since writing the name "Rachel Dolezal" on job applications prevented her from getting work.

Dolezal's father, Lawrence Dolezal, once said of his daughter:

“She is Caucasian. She is white."

He also added that their family was of primarily European descent, though "there’s a small amount of American Indian," and there was no African-American in the family's lineage that he was aware of.

Linda Yaccarino—the former NBC Universal executive who later took the reins at X—stepped down as CEO of billionaire Elon Musk's platform after two years on the job just a day after Grok, the platform's AI chatbot, went on antisemitic rants and openly praised Adolf Hitler.

Grok issued deeply antisemitic responses on Tuesday following a reported software update that encouraged the bot to embrace what developers described as the “politically incorrect.” Taking that directive to heart, Grok responded with a series of disturbing posts that included praise for Hitler and even a statement expressing its aspiration to become a “digital version” of the Nazi leader.
