So my daughter is mixed. Im black, my husband is white. Our daughter has curly brown hair. I remember this Hispanic nurse who commented on how beautiful she is, but she immediately twisted her nose at how "fluffy" her hair is as if thats a problem. It was hurtful 😢 people give mixed and black women so much heat for wearing wigs, but at the same time they say our real hair is too fluffy and nappy and unkept. What do they expect us to do? Sometimes I feel like people don't want us to wear wigs and straight hair so they can keep laughing at us for looking so different. I've noticed that as soon as people see black girls they start flipping their hair and acting like they're in a Pantene commercial, it's like "look, I'm better than you. I'm not negra like you". If we are so disgusting to you, why did you want us to cook your foods and grow your farms and play music for you? You wouldn't have wanted us to touch anything if you thought we were so dirty
