      I agree. Braids were found on the Venus of Willendorf, which was created in 35000 BC in Austria. So anyone who wears braids and is not Austrian is appropriating Austrian culture.

      The picture is box braids which was invented in 3500 b. c in South Africa, their similar to the eembuvi braids of Namibia or the braids from the Nile valley. A lot of woman would hide rice in their braids.

    It's ok with me. They claimed Bo Derck started the braids. Which we know, she did not. I'm black and never wore braids. I used to get my hair relaxed. You know, making it straight, Did the white girl get offensive to me straighten my hair?

      @OurManFlint I'm really 63. I was born in the mid-50s. Anyway, there was no problem wearing afros to work, to church, or any else. where else. I tried wearing it, but my hair was long and soft. Everywhere you looked, all you could see were afros. I miss those days.

    If you are wearing because you like the look and feel just do it. Seriously just fucking do it and don’t give a damn about what other people say.

    This is supposed to be a free country. I don’t think a white girl would go to that extent to mock black women. Who gives a shit except radical libtards who will never get their heads out of their woke asses to see the light of day.

    Anyone can do what they want with their hair. Black people can go out with their natural hair if they want, they can wear wigs or braids of any sort and white people can do the same. People of other races can also do the same.


    The day Americans accept that will mark a step forward in solving systemic racism!

    People can wear whatever they want. Why do people get angry about haircuts? I talked about cultural appreciation back in 2008 with college government. Over the years somehow it became cultural appropriation. Everyone’s so focused on bs topics that it makes it easier for everyone to lookup conspiracy topics as being normal. Can’t lookup ultraviolet medical breakthroughs since YouTube bans the videos, but I can find information about Bermuda Triangle, giants etc..., oh yeah things are fucked now.

    It’s just a hairstyle, I don’t think anyone can really tell you how to wear your hair but the way things are now you never know but that’s like telling black people not to straighten their hair because it’s copying white peoples hair and it’s trademarked, lol so it’s really stupid when you think about it if they say anything to you just mention that
