There may be a legit reason why she can’t find a job, and it’s something we “real” black people face every day when it comes to having an “ethnic” looking or sounding name on one’s r?sum? or job application.
Yeah, I know. Neither “Rachel” nor “Dolezal” is ethnic-sounding, but
Nkechi Amare Diallo definitely is. And yes, according to the Daily Mail, which happened to come across Washington state court documents, Dolezal has officially blackened up her name. First, how do you happen to come across court documents about Dolezal? I mean, I guess you could be searching for them, but something tells me someone in her inner circle snitched on her.
Just in case you were interested in knowing the meaning of the name, in Igbo, Nkechi means “gift of God,” and Diallo means “bold” and its origins are Fula. Let me be the first to say, it takes a bold-ass white person to pass for black. But this chick is no gift from God.
If only she would have picked a name like Susie Reynolds, she probably could have found a job by now.
