And it’s her natural color! Tons of black Americans have brown and even blonde hair, largely as a result of slavery. Penalizing her for her lighter hair color is just the cherry on the shit sundae of what we’ve put black people through in this country.
Yeah I thought my friend was bullshitting me when she told me she didn’t bleach it or anything. “Come on, my ancestors were slaves. Do the math”
