LanaQuest aka RosaSparks As an old white woman, it makes me very sad and very, very angry that the damn government wants to control hair styles. It's vile.
IMO, this is a civil liberty abuse.

The same Christofascists that worship a white Jesus with long hair, want to dictate how long a black, male student’s hair is. GMAFB with the hypocrisies.

What is about a Black boy with long hair that prevents him from LEARNING—& for which he must be PUNISHED❓Long haired Albert Einstein & Frederick Douglass were 2 of the most undeniably BRILLIANT Americans, but apparently TOO STUPID to study in TX schools.

Long haired and learned Thomas Jefferson—as well as his Black male descendants—might be expelled under a Texas school district’s ’ no long hair policy for boys. The policy is sexist by design and racist in application.

When the Crown Act was passed in the Texas Legislature this year it was to address this exact type of institutionalized racism. This teenager is an honor student who deserved to be educated in the same classroom as his peers. We hope the fight carries on and he wins.
