Also: I understand the intended, beautiful message of the Sesame Street song featured. Though, to visitors who find this video, re: the lyrics, "...don't need a trip to the beauty shop..." There are many salons around the world (UK/Europe, USA, South Korea, South America + other places) which specialize in natural hair for people of African descent. They specialize in the creative styling of the various textures of 'our' hair. There are a myriad of options & every year new ideas emerge...<3
Awesome story & reporting..I'm from a multi-ethnic extended family + grew up in what was a 'ghetto' at that time..& surrounded by one of the most affluent communities in the USA. I can testify: this topic is definitely an issue - it plagues many of us today. There are many forms & levels of inherited & internalized self hatred for many descendants of American slaves. I applaud this loving father for his contribution to healing the pain.
@MrJaffa2015 Maybe. but that'd be boring;)
