The white former NAACP leader who believes she’s black, Rachel Dolezal has now changed her name to Nkechi Amare Diallo. Nkechi is short for Nkechinyere in the Nigerian language of Igbo, and translates to “gift of god.” I mean I guess it’s pretty distinct.
Diallo, comes from the Fula people of West Africa and means “bold.” Rachel still identifies herself as a African American woman and has also named her son as one also.
