Is this the new vogue thing to be angry about? I don't think I heard the term "natural hair" referenced for racism in the last 5 years, then in the last week I've heard it for about 20 different things.
I'm assuming there's a blog somewhere that everyone knows about except me where they are told what to be angry about that week.

Meanwhile we'd have a non issue if Crews tweeted the same about Enzo's hair.

The lack of cultural awareness with dealings of black women and dealings of having natural hairstyles instead of going for a European look is quite alarming if not something I expected anyway.
And I'll leave it at that for now....

Bits of cultural appropriation mixed in with a little bit of micro aggression with a lot of what a bitch in. Real shit. And frankly? The responses in this thread reminds me why it f***ing sucks to be a black wrestling fan. Good lord. |

I wish this dickhead would stop making fun of my hair while I'm trying to open the pretzels. By the way, did you ever dye it purple like you promised? Work in progress. I've got the purple dye up on my shelf but I haven't used it yet. |

Cultural appropriation and discrimination based on hair is a long standing issue in the black community. Except this isn't "cultural appropriation", black people didn't invent braiding hair nor is it exclusive to black culture. |

I can't say from that screenshot she's being a whiney racist. She's being whiny and very possibly being racist.

Except this isn't "cultural appropriation", black people didn't invent braiding hair nor is it exclusive to black culture. In American culture, dreads/braids are absolutely a part of black culture. You really think white people are getting the idea from ancient vikings? No, they get it from people they see in modern culture with it. Most of whom happen to be...BLACK PEOPLE! So yes, it's cultural appropriation and the fact that people are so adamant to tell a race what does and does not belong to their culture says a ton. |

First, has it been confirmed anywhere the race of the person she took the photo of? A lot of people are saying nasty things in both directions with very little information that I can find.
With that said, can we please stop with shaming and the attacks going on in here? While there is a very real issue surrounding people, their culture, their genetics and their hair, neither side in here has shown they want to actually take part in a discussion. While the facts in this bit with Mandy Rose are foggy at best, that does not mean this is a free space to call people out, take a swipe and run or anything of that nature.

Looks to me like she's rocking the Dutch Braid, a hairstyle that certainly isn't exclusive to black people or black culture. Doesn't seem like there's any reason to make this a race issue, imo. |

Actually, that's what you are doing. Nobody is saying it's exclusive to black culture. Braids are undeniably part of black American culture. Like, that's not even debatable. |
