In the late 1800s, ethnic haircare practices were systematically undermined and stolen as European beauty standards were imposed on communities of African descent. During this period, natural Black hairstyles were often deemed inappropriate, leading to the stigmatization of wearing hair in its natural state. The widespread adoption of Eurocentric beauty ideals resulted in a loss of traditional knowledge about how to properly care for and manage ethnic hair. This cultural shift created a gap in understanding and embracing the beauty and versatility of natural hair, forcing generations to conform to foreign standards that often disregarded the unique characteristics of textured hair.

Learn About Kwanzaa!
—
This is my inaugural year celebrating Kwanzaa and I have learned that during this time we greet each other by saying “Habari Gani” (hah – BAR – ee GAH – nee). It is a Swahili term meaning “What is the news?” It is spoken when greeting others during Kwanzaa. The appropriate response is to say the name of the principle for that day. Each day of Kwanzaa centers around a principle.
