In this episode, we discuss Black hair laws and the difference between cultural appropriation and cultural appreciation. We break down how hairstyles like braids, locs, and afros have been regulated in schools and workplaces, why protections like the CROWN Act were created, and how double standards still show up today. This episode explores the history, the impact on identity, and what respect for culture really looks like.
