I recently watched Good Hair with Chris Rock, and I saw how so many black women feel pressure to get relaxers and perms to be accepted by people in the working world. I hate that natural "black hair" isn't just accepted. It isn't fair for black women to think that they have to make their hair look like ours to be accepted and professional. And this song expresses that same kind of thought. I encourage black women to go natural, and start a revolution. I for one, will accept you.
