NEW LAW IN USA : African Americans Can Embrace Their Natural Hair!! by meavox: 6:59am On Jan 02, 2020
The oyeebo-looking (very ugly) hairweave that makes Black women look like FOOLS and FREAKS is on its way out! Amen & Amen! Black women can now begin to show off the hair God gave them in all wonderful types of natural ways: dredlocks of various sizes, afros of various sizes, two-strand twists of various sizes, braids of various sizes. I Googled to find their names but the best is Bantu knots pictured below.

(I got the picture from the African emoji App called Zouzoukwa developed by Senegalese chap)

AFRICAN-AMERICANS CAN EMBRACE THEIR NATURAL HAIR

In America: From plastic bags to natural hair, here are the new laws coming in 2020
By Harmeet Kaur, CNN, 01/01/20


AFRICAN-AMERICANS CAN EMBRACE THEIR NATURAL HAIR

Black students and employees in CALIFORNIA can finally feel free to be themselves.

Wednesday, the Golden State BECOMES THE FIRST IN THE UNITED STATES to ban employers and school officials from discriminating against people based on their natural hair.

The Crown Act makes it illegal to enforce dress code or grooming policies against hairstyles such as afros, braids, twists and locks.

"This law protects the right of black Californians to choose to wear their hair in its natural form, without pressure to conform to Eurocentric norms," state Sen. Holly Mitchell said earlier this year. "I am so excited to see the culture change that will ensue from the law."
