head covering didn't begin during enslavement and for many ancestors, it was done for religious/spiritual reasons
-
many enslaved Africans were Muslim so women covered. Many older Xtians also covered. Ifa practitioners too.
-
there were a number of reasons that pre-date enslavement & and were less about aesthetic than adherence

you came with the word.

Here's an idea- let's idolise gang culture! It sure seems to have served black ppl well thus far! How ridiculous.
-
you know du rags have nothing to do with gangs, right? We use them get waves and get rid of frizz
-
It makes sense once you realize literally everything black people do is "gang culture" to some people.

-
right, walking to the store, cooking eggs, watching Seinfeld - all criminal when blk folks do it
-
Clearly a gang store, gang eggs, and are you going to tell me Kramer doesn't look sketch as hell?
