WUSA-TV anchor Lesli Foster reminds me of all the times I passed through European airports and was told my hair had "triggered the system," whatever that means. Or the time right here in America when I was told that I would be much prettier if I "took that mess out of my head." The struggle is still real for women who choose natural hairstyles. I've heard all of the arguments about professionalism, neatness, and fitting in. I'd be the first to send myself home for showing up at work with unkempt, unclean locs. But this issue is more about #identity and #culture . The majority of people who choose to wear their hair in natural styles spend as much or more money to keep them looking fashionable and appropriate than people who don't. It's time to end the ignorance and discrimination against natural hair. Thanks for this great feature, Lesli! #LetsGetReal #CROWNAct https://lnkd.in/dVaRyN8 …see more
