African Americans Let's find Acceptance Among Us

As we have been discussing Chris Rock's Good Hair documentary there is a hum of another type 
Skin Color
IF WE CAN'T put away the foolishness that came with the brown paper bag test, WHY SHOULD ANYONE ELSE?
WE are in an age that WE CAN put away all those slavery ties, lets enjoy our freedom as a people and insist on everyone with shades of difference to find joy as well. What is your thinking on this? Holler

The Weekend Wave

For my ladies with locs...

{GO} girls Out and About

The Beauty of the Natural Hair Style is still unrecognized by the majority of the current society.  Essence Magazine reported on a young college student who was running for College Campus Beauty Queen.  The campus administration requested the queen adjust her natural hair to fit the Queen look.  She had to straighten her hair for the look.  What about being true to yourself and living up to inner beauty? The struggle continues...

Stay tuned for words from Dr. Kathleen...

Oprah and Chris Rock - Good Hair

The Good Hair Documentary was produced by Chris Rock to assist his little Daughter to appreciate her Natural Hair. Of course Chris Rock took a humorous approach to the thoughts presented. But there are serious Consequences for African Americans. Your Natural hair can prevent or cause you to loose your job or prevent you from receiving certain priviledges. Why Can't the African Americans experience the same Freedoms as other Americans to be Natural? What is your opinion?

Meaningful Monday

There have been some recent discussions about black women and their hair.... particularly since Chris Rock is promoting his new film "Good Hair."   Your hair... let's make this meaningful... your hair does NOT make you.  Just like your skin color, eye color, the shape of your nose nor the height of your stature. You make YOU.
So go remind yourself... maybe India.Irie can help you out "I Am Not My Hair!"  Say it will me...
Your hair should be a reflection of what you want to represent to the world. Is it neat? Is it clean?  Is it naturally yours? Well for goodness sake... let's hope it's curly, nappy or kinky!
