theracismrepellent: wouldyoupleasestay: Well in that case I’m tired of seeing all these black girls straightening their hair and getting weaves. See how stupid that sounds. you are racist and ableist.

Cornrows is part of black culture, which has been mocked by white people. But yet whities still love to steal… You are hilarious. You call me racist yet you are referring to white people as pale faces and whitie. Shall I call you dark face or blackie? Oh wait that’s racist. Any race can wear their hair in cornrows or wear their hair straight, wearing your hair a certain way because you like the way it looks is not appropriation. Here’s the history of corn rows by the way : A traditional way of styling hair throughout North Africa, East Africa, and West Asia, depictions of women with cornrows have been found in Stone Age paintings in the Tassili Plateau of the Sahara that have been dated as far back as 3000 B.C.[2] This tradition of female styling in cornrows has remained popular throughout Africa, particularly in North, East, and West Africa.[3] Historically, male styling with cornrows can be traced as far back as the early nineteenth century to Ethiopia, where warriors and kings such as Tewodros II and Yohannes IV were depicted wearing cornrows. Outside of Africa and Asia, cornrows have also been worn and depicted in Europe, particularly in Greek and Roman art, and may have had a similar presence in Celtic culture. Cornrows made a comeback in the 1960s and ’70s, and again during the ’90s.[4] So in other words corn rows can be found in MANY cultures not just black.

I’m not black, or dark? So like that would be kind of odd to call me don’t you think? Though I’m sure the other mods on here would just love to hear the racist commentary you are saying.

And yes. You are a racist piece of scum.

Guess what. You aren’t fucking oppressed. You won’t experience racism ever in your life whitie.

Black people have been mocked for their hair styles by white people for hundreds of years. Whities are the ones who created the whole “light skin smooth hair is beautiful” fucking belief that affect POC subconsciously and make it hard for POC to see their own beauty.

Y'all love to make fun of black peoples appearances until it’s “hip and trendy” then you want black culture, just not the racism. White people who culturally appropriate will never experience the racism that goes along with that culture. Nor is culture ever meant to be shared.

I’m done talking to your racist mayo ass if you aren’t willing to respect POC or black culture. Have a great life looking 80 when you’re 40 cracker.
