Rachel Dolezal is stepping into a new profession nearly a decade after the controversy that made international headlines.
Dolezal, now known publicly as Nkechi Diallo, recently completed certification training to work as a sex coach after previously launching an OnlyFans account and creating paid online content.
“People would suggest, because you have name recognition, just do this — you’ll become a millionaire,” she previously said while discussing her decision to join OnlyFans.
The former activist rose to prominence as president of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP before her parents publicly revealed in 2015 that she was born to white parents…making global news.
“For me, how I feel is more powerful than how I was born. I mean that not in the sense of having some easy way out. This has been a lifelong journey. This is not something that I cash in, cash out, change up, do at a convenience level or to freak people out or to make people happy,” she told The Guardian at the time. “If somebody asked me how I identify, I identify as Black. Nothing about whiteness describes who I am.”
Now, Dolezal says she plans to take her new career as a sex coach very seriously.
“Can we agree to disagree and still respect each other… and allow each other to provide for our families, and not have this need to keep me — or anybody else — punished forever?” she said.
