My Piece on her Piece called "Bi-Racial Hair"



This theme is the idea of being bi-racial, in this case specifically black and white. This artist is Zora Howard from the group The Strivers Row which I spoke about before. She became a part of The Strivers Row when she was a student at Yale, this video was prior to that. This video talks about her hair as a result of her being bi-racial and the struggles she has had because of it. I can relate because, even though I am not bi-racial like she is, I have different types of hair on my head. I can relate when she talks about having smooth edges and naps in other places because my hair is just like that. I found this piece so amusing and entertaining because I could say "I feel you girl" to a lot of the things she was saying. I know bi-racial girls who haven't embraced their hair and find it hard to so I love the fact that she is so confident about it. She also is extremely real with how her hair got the way it is and I love it.
