Nicole revealed the painful reality of facing scrutiny, criticism, and double standards.
She eloquently stated, “Dear Black girl, they may call you a traitor for falling in love. You’ll hope the ones closest will protect you, but you will quickly find out that people don’t protect what they don’t value.”
Kayla Nicole continued her heartfelt message, acknowledging the unjust labels that society often assigns to Black women, emphasizing their perceived shortcomings.
She stressed the importance of harnessing one’s inner strength to silence the negativity and self-doubt imposed by societal pressures, concluding with the powerful notion that “the rage of the world is loud.”
Nicole also highlighted the vital role of resources like therapy, prayer, and community in coping with the challenges posed by online negativity and trolling.
