Jenny Bravo I had this happen at times. People act like you have to be so social, as if it is a crime to be in your own bubble.

I’m dark skinned and in my experience I’ve have always been told that I was sweet; I didn’t like that but who else could I be.
Dark skinned women look their absolute best with their natural hair. No weave. No lace front wigs. Short, close cut and natural. Super sexy.

Naimah Rose they look gorgeous with weaves as well as without. black women can rock anything
LOOK AT THIS GODDESS OMG😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 She's sooo beautiful. I'm sad she quit. I have a feeling that she will be successful in anything she does. She's still beautiful
I've been following Ajak closely for a few years now and she's one of my favorite models. She's such an epic beauty and I'm deeply saddened to hear her be mistreated like that. She and other dark skinned black models deserve so much more imho.
Soooo GORGEOUS..
Extremely kind..i was her driver for like 2 years
I agree, you can tell she is a sweet girl.. I think the casting director was just looking for something to complain about. He softly says hey, she doesn't see or notice because the environment is noisy. After all, she was told by a member of the director's team to go stand at the back. And he without even making an attempt to get within her line of site. To ask a clear question. Just gets on the phone to complain with the purpose of destroying her reputation. "Ah, the revenge of the narcissist". All this for a job that pays nothing. It's sad really, first they exploit her and then they damage her future earnings with slander.

Oh my goodness such a sweet lady probably for the best ...she could be a doctor or a lawyer...
She Is Soo Beautiful...I Love Her Lips💋
STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL WOMAN.
It’s really the way people antagonize and demonize dark skin without realizing it. If a dark skin person simply looks neutral and doesn’t always have a big smile on their face 24/7 or isn’t being overly nice, it’s as though they’re not allowed to be human.

AJAK DENG IS A FLAWLESS BEAUTY!
This is what they do pick pick and pick until there's nothing left.. the industry is extremely tough. Especially being a black lady. Ajak is so stunning how do you be able to treat and exaggerate against a woman who's just trying her best. Sad and I'm sure she has loads of stories similar or worse than this one
God bless U my beautiful black Sister. U have such kind eYes!!😇🙌💕💕💕🌹🌹
This same type of thing happens to Black women in regular jobs.

Agree. It should be Sudanese. Sundanese is a tribe from West Java, Indonesia.
Her younger sister, instagram model Anyang Deng, is also gorgeous.

You're a beautiful black woman
Modelling is not for everyone. It’s not easy and you can do it if you have no feelings (only)
Srry for error in spelling your name ajak
Ajak is too beautiful to be a model...she look like a James Bond girl 😍
Que hermosa es 😍
You spelt Sudanese wrong

Ajak Denk, I swear I was looking you up because I wonderes where you were. I Love your pictures, so artistic and such a beautiful face. How awful that this happened to you. Black girls are usually more likely to be preceived as stuck up because of old racial division. I read a study o how it still impacts women especially.
Beauty 💖🌹✨

My beautiful Nubian Kemet your ancestors were the builders of the best African civilization. Do not throw your values into that wicked industry that never makes you feel 100% alive. Thats the right thing our queens. Leave those parasites and wicked entities. Lets work on our unity and built kemitic strength.

A perfect mannequin prototype. Reminds of Grace Jones. But, more innocent.

Most people don’t see they are giving off a bad attitude. When you come to a working environment you have to portray a radiant expression. Even if you not in a great mood. Especially black woman... who America media portraying of them having a bad attitude.
