The mom says that Autumn has never dyed her hair; the color of her braids best matches her natural color.

Naturally lighter hair while black: a fireable offense

      Yeah at ex model c all girls high schools in South Africa there were major issues around black girls hair. Even led to full on protests because of how racist these schools were. I remember meeting someone at university detail how they were forced to put chemicals in their hair to straighten it while at one of these schools. But I think the protests led to a change in hair and uniform policy, so at least something happened.

              Yeah natural hair on the rise. It's becoming much more common, along with braids + extensions. Especially amongst young people, a lot of people don't straighten or relax anymore.

                  I was even sad when my friend buzzed their's off, but apparently they got tired of all the conditioning and how expensive a hair conditioner that worked for them was. Still supported their choice anyways

                      The bar might as well be on the floor lol. How do you know some others, guessing immigrants to the US? In general the worst of us are among the immigrat/expat community.

                          The children probably learn from how our society is structured here. It's common for upper/middle class families to have a maid/domestic worker (who is in 99% of cases a black woman) clean their entire house for minimum wage. And pretty much everyone working in low paid service jobs, from cashiers to petrol pump attendants and waiters/waitresses, are black. So the children learn from that blatant racial inequality and act like that and become spoilt racist brats. I just hope they grow out of it when they get older.

                              Among older people yes most people are still very racist, but the situation is better among younger people. Still a lot of racism though, the amount of young people that have felt comfortable using the k word around me is way too high. But the situation is still much better than before among young folks, though I tend to avoid the crazies so yeah.
