STILL need a break from the election? How about the second part of a conversation about black women's complicated relationship to hair and how its a metaphor for being subjected to standards of beauty they could never meet? Also, how we as a culture have internalized that ideal and oppress our own daughters? ONLY THIS TIME from an Afro Latina perspective? Today we talk to beautician and NuYorican Christina Mineo about her journey to reclaim beauty from an Afro Latina lens 


Hope yal enjoyed this season!
