Solange proves no one is above the quest for good hair
Good hair? Good hair to me is hair that looks good. India Arie said it best in her song. I am not my hair. You can shave it off like a South African beauty. Or get it locked like Bob Marley. You can rock it straight like Oprah Winfrey if its not what's on your head but what's underneath. In other words, our hair does not define who we are as individuals. Does the way I wear my hair make me a better person? Does the way I wear my hair make me a better friend? Does the way I wear my hair determine my INTEGRITY? Or Is it me expressing my creativity. Folk need to be confident enough to wear their hair in any style that makes them feel good.
I am not my hair
I am not this skin
I am not your expectations
I am not my hair
I am not this skin
I am a soul that lives within.
To all my sistas that wear dreds, braids, weave, wigs or keep it bald. Do You!read more
- I agree with Crystal that Shaniqua can and should be CEO if she has what it takes. A name should not stop anyone from reaching his or her potential however, I do sometimes wonder if corporate america would give Lil'Princess, Yo'majesty and Ya'highness the same consideration for a position that they would give Sheila,Diane or Carol. As awful as it may seem our society does not always share the same feeling that mom or dad had when they gave us these special names. I hope and pray that when we go for an interview that the person looking at the resume can look at these names as being unique and not allow them to hinder him or her from looking at the qualifications of Yo-majesty, Shaniqua, La'Princess and Ya'highness.
