The beautiful dark skin model evoked massive support from followers on her Twitter thread when she shared her experience as a dark skin model.

Following @elimieralanegra's tweet, a mixed wave of motivational together with tweets condemning the stereotyping and discrimination against her have flooded the thread beneath her post.

The modelling industry can be a pretty harsh space for dark skin models not just because of the rigorous beauty standards but also the discrimination most of them experience.

@elimieralanegra indicated in her recent tweet that her skin color became a subject when she posted that: ''appreciation post for myself because the 4th modeling agency this week told me they were no longer in need of darker skinned models atm & not making height exceptions at the time.''
