4 Reasons Why, Actually, You Cannot Touch My Hair
Reblogged from Disrupting Dinner Parties:
Last week an art exhibit opened in NYC called “You Can Touch My Hair.” It featured three black women, all with different hair styles, standing in Union Station with signs featuring those same words. It was not intended to be the start of a hair touching movement, but a social experiment to explore the widespread tactile fascination with black women's hair.
Her reasons were well thought out, methodical and hilariously funny, with an undercurrent of feminist seriousness to it. I don't want anybody touching my hair either. That's like asking if you can cut me and see if I bleed red! My hair texture is not your goddamn anomaly! Okay, rant over. :)
