This is how society needs to be. Instead of tormenting her on stuff she doesn't understand, they introduced her to their culture. They celebrated their culture and shared it amongst others like it was meant to be.

[@Toramai-pi8wx]

But here’s the thing people tend to appropriate that culture. Pluck things from their culture that have great significance to them and make them “cool“ meanwhile they still get penalized for that piece of culture that white people made cool. I understand that not all white people understand the prejudices or are aware of them, but the thing is is that a lot of white people when pointed out these fallacies tend to get very angry and defensive. They pull out the arguments of “I’m totally not a racist.” But instead of trying to actually learn about the culture and learn about the biases and prejudices that had permeated through the centuries, they tend to want to bury their heads and pretend that they are enlightened because they treat Black people semi nicely when they’re not thinking of stereotypes.

My best friend is Black and I'm hispanic/white. I bought her clippers and taught her how to shave her head because that's what she wanted and she was using scissors to try her best. I won't touch her hair with scissors, but she used to let me help with her twists sometimes. I'm not confident in sectioning, but I love that we get to style and play with each other's hair. It's easy to shy away because something takes more energy or is unfamiliar. And it's easy to make someone feel like an idiot for not knowing what's basic practice for someone else. It takes just a little effort, but it's not too hard to be kind to others and to want to help and not make someone feel bad for existing in a space that's new to them. ❤

This actually made me tear up because it reminds me so much of my situation. I was attacked at 14 which resulted in me becoming pregnant. My plan was to give the baby up for adoption but at my 8 month ultrasound I asked to see the baby and I immediately fell in love with my daughter and chose to raise her. I'm white and I grew up in a town with a very small black population so I knew nothing about what my daughter's hair needed. We eventually moved to a town with a much more equal black to white population and some girls from school took me shopping to show me what I needed to buy to keep my daughter's hair healthy. One girl even came to my house to show me how to properly moisturize her scalp. I hope they know how much everything they did meant to me. My daughter is 17 now and actually does hair herself, she loves braiding and has a few clients that she regularly braids.

His wife had died recently and he had NO IDEA how to care for her hair, because that was mom and daughter's ritual and bonding time. A teacher at the school noticed the girl's hair becoming unkempt and helped her. The dad showed up after school to ask the teacher to help him learn about his daughter's hair, and to thank her for helping his little girl. Eventually he got connected with a local natural hair stylist and learned formally how to do hair for his daughter. He did her hair for her graduation. Guys, I was sniffling in my car.

But yes, in an ideal utopia, everyone would know the right thing to do and we would not have to face such hardships. Though, I feel thinking like this is terrible. To try and obtain the untainable, it aint gonna work. To also answer your question, society is large and varied. We learn by generation, sadly. It takes time to be kind to others. I mean, look at the lgbtq+ community. It took us years to be somewhat accepted and we're still demonized for being ourselves. Though, the things happening in the movie, it does happen. You just dont hear about it because not everyone wants to share their lives to the internet.

[@user-ps1ft1hy4j]

@@FIVforlife We were a foster family that also adopted some children of all colors. One had come from a terribly abusive background. He fit in well and loved us and we loved him, so we adopted him. All was well until this Hawaiian boy went to elementary school in Hawaii. His Hawaiian "friends" harassed him relentlessly, he told us, for having anything to do with white people. Soon he began telling my mother not to walk him to school anymore, because it would set his "friends" off. Eventually he began to fold to the pressure and become more and more alienated from the family. He spent as little time with us as he could and kept his distance from us in public. By the way, I lost quite a few friends over the same thing. They told me they couldn't be my friend anymore because they were tired of their friends and family hitting them and shouting at them and belittling them for having a white friend. Anyway, eventually my little brother went from an adorable, innocent, and by the way very smart boy, to a petty thief, thug, alcoholic drug user. He died in a drunken car crash. The newspaper published his obituary and commenters online said things like Good riddance! and that he was a thug and an awful person. Don't think your "in-group," even if it's racial or ethnic, is your ticket to acceptance and that they will always(or perhaps ever, who really knows?) have your best interests in mind. If you find yourself unsure of yourself, as we all do, especially when young and our self-identities are still forming and very fluid, don't go looking for the easy answers in peer groups, whether they be politics, religion, race or ethnicity, or sex or sexual identity. Too many people are ruined by trying to fit in, or being told they don't. And even if they finally do - what is the quality of those particular people you're fitting in with at the time? You have to keep thinking in life. Or at least not stop. And you're not going to find easy answers in just identifying with a group. That won't solve anybody's problems. But it might create problems from nothing, or make problems infinitely, devastatingly worse.
