Black Girl Interrupted: The Story of Nianni Maraje

By Shey Marie

Meet Nianni "Diamond" Maraje, daughter of a crackhead, father unknown. She was born into one of the most poverty-stricken neighborhoods in Saginaw, Michigan. From the outside looking in one would say she was set up to fail in life. Vowing not to be a victim of her circumstances, she worked hard toward a better life. So hard that she got accepted into one of the most prestigious colleges in the country. Nianni was not only intelligent, but talented as well. Diamond was also a big dreamer and a bit na ve. Which lead her to easily believe that some fairytales do exist. Shockingly, her fairytale actually came true in the form of a handsome and wealthy man named Andrew, whom she fell hard for. So hard that when a life-altering secret about him and his family was revealed, her world was rocked and she was left devastated. Diamond's fairytale life fell apart so fast that she didn't even have time to process her first heartbreak. After she did, she realized that love wasn't for the weak and forever wasn't promised. Through it all the hardest lesson that she learned was that all things go.(Formerly Every Diamond Has Its Flaws and I Make Pain Look Pretty)
