I don't know of any college that was sued for discrimination by a black woman who claimed that she was given a lower grade because of her hairstyle. It's never happened! And I already told you about how people with big, curly hair have to keep it contained in a certain way to make sure it doesn't distract or look unprofessional. That's an example right there, but you don't see articles on the news about this, because it's not really a big deal to these people. People with big hair, no matter the texture, need to tame it, so it doesn't distract others in the class from seeing the front of the room. Some schools deem certain hairstyles unprofessional for whatever reason - it could be a mohawk, a styled afro, etc.

1.I never said that anywhere in my post
2.Its really as simple as this. Are black people discriminated against in college? Absolutely. Are their racist education professionals? Yes. Now I hope you don't think that when someone says they don't like black people they are just talking about their skin color. If a professor does not like a black female student for being black, BEING black is all of her characteristics including her hair. So are black woman discriminated against for their hair in college. Yes.
3.Big poofy hair does not equal Afro hair. You keep trying to equate the two to be the same because you don't know what black hair is and how it works. Which is why your whole argument makes no sense. You can't even explain WHY it's inappropriate which I'm going to ask again why is it inappropriate if it's natural and cared for? The argument is not about the rule being there, it's if the rules are RIGHT. There was a time when being black was against policies, were they right to discipline people who didn't fit their ideology of what was right then? NO and just like you shouldn't be told to change your natural born skin color you shouldn't be told to change the way your hair grows out your scalp to fit into a mold that shouldn't even be a standard to begin with. I've said all I have to say on this topic rather you get it or not don't really care at this point.

If you don't discriminate based on color, then why are 90+% of your models white? You're not even European, so you can't use that excuse. There are plenty of beautiful black and non-caucasian models in NYC, where you cast your shows. Hire them, please.

I get so frustrated when people say "ITS JUST HAIR"
Its like saying "oh the N WorD? BUT ITS JUST A WORD LOL WHY U SO SENSITIVE"

Like get to know the history of why people find it offensive before rushing in with such an ignorant comment.

I've literally been talking about black women facing discrimination over their hairstyles by professors. I'm was very clear about this the entire time I was saying black women aren't discriminated for this by professors in college. There is NO documented source proving that a black woman was graded down in college simply because a professor didn't like her or black people. If you want to believe this, go ahead, but it's false.

A big, puffy afro is literally a different texturized version of big, puffy hair. Both are distracting, which is why schools wouldn't allow either. I never said a small afro was inappropriate. I'm talking about every kind of BIG hair ranging from natural to processed.

You really should've googled before saying this stupid crap.

I could go on but I think we've both proven how much you don't know.

As for the second part of your comment it's not the same thing. You've shown multiple times you don't understand black hair. What's inappropriate or distracting about an Afro that's not distracting about straight/flat hair though? Showing your colors.

None of those links prove that a black woman's hair was the reason she was given a lower grade. In college, you EARN your grades. Your hair doesn't contribute. I'm never talked about admissions discrepancies, racist fraternities and sororities, etc.

There's really nothing more I have to say. Black hair might be different in so many ways to you, but the only difference I see is that the texture is different. If you grow an afro out and it's big and puffy, then it's distracting for students sitting behind you. The same goes for girls and boys with big curly hair. Basic flat hair is not distracting.

Nice try but you lost and you know it. You BLATANTLY said that black people are not discriminated against in college period for being black, when proven wrong you try and nit pick and say for "our hair" which is stupid because our hair just as much of an indicator of our race as our skin. We our being discriminated against as whole from hair to our skin to our culture.It's all apart of being black. The links I provided if you even bothered to read (which you have proven you don't do much of that) shows multiple cases of discrimination with a wide variety of circumstances. You never had anything of substance to say to begin with, this whole time you have petty fogged and plain out ignored evidence that went against your extremely bias narrative. Black hair is different that's scientifically factual and documented and as someone with the hair texture I'm sure I know a hell of a lot more about it than you do. Nothing you have said has been backed up with proof and all you're doing is showing your ignorance to accepting,understanding and respecting different cultures and racial differences. It's clear no matter how wrong you are you're going to continue to be trivial and obtuse so I have nothing more to say on the subject.

I've been talking about black hair and discrimination in schools this ENTIRE time. It seems like you can't find evidence to prove that black hair resulted in grade deflation, so now you're trying to tell me that I believe black people face NO discrimination in college? No...

I also read the links, but there's no point in providing those links here, because they don't address what we're discussing. Of course I know that there are racist students in college. There are racists everywhere. However, what remains true is that you EARN your grades, because you are the only person that has the most influence on how you perform.

I also agreed that black hair has a different texture. That doesn't mean that limiting its growth should automatically be considered discriminatory. I already told you how big afros and big, non-black hair can be considered distracting, but you have it set in your mind that any limitation on black hair is a result of racism. I guess if you want to go on living with that mindset, no matter how unhealthy, you can.
