Nyakim Gatwech aka the queen of the dark shared a moving quote by the late American writer, feminist, womanist, librarian, and civil rights activist Audre Lorde.
The 27-year-old model wrote on Instagram:
“It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences.” –Audre Lorde.
I’m black, I’m dark and I’m f**king beautiful.”
Gatwech is popularly known for her naturally dark skin color and has been nicknamed the Queen of the Dark. Gatwech has faced self-esteem issues and comments from people who promote bleaching to lighten skin color, but learned to embrace her beauty and pigmentation with love and support from her fans.
