The American activist formerly known as Rachel Dolezal, a white woman who was exposed for falsely claiming to be black, has lost a second teaching job after sharing a link to a pornography website.

Nkechi Diallo, who was called Ms Dolezal until 2016, made headlines when she resigned as head of a chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People (NAACP) in Spokane, Washington in 2015 after her parents, who are white, came forward to say she was not black as she had been claiming.

She was also dismissed from her position as an instructor in Africana studies at Eastern Washington University and was removed from her post as chair of the local Police Ombudsman Commission.

In 2016, she changed her name and in 2023, began working as a part-time after-school instructor in Tucson, Arizona.

But reports say the 46-year-old has now been fired from her job at Catalina Foothills School District after posting a link to her OnlyFans account on Instagram. OnlyFans is an online site that allows people to post and sell subscriptions to usually home-made content that is often sexually explicit.

The site’s creators say it is a “18+ subscription platform empowering creators to own their full potential, monetise their content, and develop authentic connections with their fans”.

Julie Farbarik, a spokeswoman for the district, told The Arizona Republic that while Ms Diallo had the OnlyFans account since 2021, it was only recently brought to the district’s attention.

“We only learned of Ms Nkechi Diallo’s OnlyFans social media posts on Tuesday afternoon,” said Ms Farbarik.

“Her posts are contrary to our district’s ‘Use of Social Media by District Employees’ policy and our staff ethics policy. She is no longer employed by the Catalina Foothills School District.”

Neither Ms Diallo or the school district responded to requests for comment.
