Description
Despite increasingly liberal world views, black hair continues to be erased, appropriated, and stigmatized to the point of taboo. Through her personal and historical journey, Emma Dabiri gleans insights into the way racism is coded in society's perception of black hair, and how it is often used as an avenue for discrimination.
