NeNe Leakes, a former cast member of “Real Housewives of Atlanta,” used Twitter to denounce those who “want power over their victims” during her ongoing racism lawsuit against Bravo.
On Sunday, the reality TV star, who claims she was “blacklisted” and “silenced” after criticizing the network, retweeted several messages from fans.
“Everybody can see what they did to me! Nobody is stupid!” Leakes, 54, tweeted.
She said, “This treatment has been going on for yearssss!”
“Just remember, abusers want power over their victims!” she added, not specifying who the “abusers” were.
“They want to break you! Most abuse takes place behind closed doors (hint: this is why you don’t know or see everything). On the surface, it looks fine, right.”
In a separate tweet, she further claimed that many people “behind the scenes” were “complicit,” and she further urged for them to “be exposed.”
Leakes, who is a part of the “RHOA” original cast, also made a hint about the release of a book she has “been writing for the past year” and called it a “must read.”
In April, she filed a lawsuit against Bravo, alleging that the company encouraged and tolerated a hostile and racist workplace.
“NBC, Bravo, and True foster a corporate and workplace culture in which racially-insensitive and inappropriate behavior is tolerated — if not encouraged,” the suit says.
According to the lawsuit, which is currently being negotiated, Leakes protested to executives about years of racial remarks made by Kim Zolciak-Biermann, a fellow “Housewife,” but only Leakes faced the consequences.
“But I was constantly being retaliated against, being blacklisted, not able to work, being silenced, and so, you know, it was difficult to do,” she claimed at the time.
Leakes said she realized she had been blacklisted when she “suddenly” found herself “not working” after years of being “sought after.”
Before leaving the show, Leakes appeared on the show for Seasons 1 through 7, followed by Seasons 10 through 12.
