        Why does it matter? Wear your hair how you want. I never knew it was a "thing" that black women felt they had to change their natural hair.

        Many documented cases where Black ppl don't WANT to change their hair but are MADE to or made to feel they HAVE to at work, at school, etc.

        Wow. I never knew that. I can't imagine! Is that legal? It should be illegal to FORCE a Black Woman to change her natural hair. Unreal.

        Search "cases of discrimination against African American or Black hair" - at work, at school...it's horrible, but VERY real 😐

        Some cases make headlines; most don't. There's a lot of harassment around something basic as hair. It damages self esteem esp for Black kids

        I think you've missed it. No one is making rules against your hair, like the US Army recently did, but reversed. Empathy is hard for you.

        This is not abt having long hair beyond ears. This specifically abt Black women and girls' hair+hairstyles only, and rules that target them
