Blaklioness said:And just where might the Black woman have picked up the idea that something was wrong with her natural hair in the first place? Who was and is supposed to be PROTECTING Black children (especially females) from such attacks? I remember traveling to Ghana and seeing TONS of Black women all over that country with perm damaged heads. Hair perming and skin lightening ads in a country controlled by Black men....who is sending the approval signals? Don't get me wrong, I do understand what you are saying and agree...but you brothers betta recognize.
That's why we should not be made a fool by OUR OWN (not talking about non-blacks), but OUR OWN when we go out with our 100% natural hair.
Neither should us who are young especially feel ashamed if we decide to wear turbans or scarves... especially if they are of African print.
