The Uh-Oh: The Myron Rolle Controversy

Seales accused former NFL player and neurosurgeon Myron Rolle of the sexual harassment of other women. After she had to “take a step back” in her own correspondences with Rolle after some uncomfortable moments, a woman came forward to say that she met up with him for a date only to have him open the door for her butt naked and act as if she overreacted about his nudity. Others spoke out about Rolle, but he maintained that the accusations against him were “absolutely false and should be characterized as exactly what they are — acts of bullying, intimidation and retaliation.” Speaking out about the situation caused her to receive a lot of criticism, specifically from Black men who said she changed her story about her own interactions with Rolle. She actually received death threats from some people. Seales said the situation taught her to change the way she interacted with people on social media, including her penchant for clapping back, because “this is not healthy.”
