🖤 Black Woman Called Out For Saying This to 🤍 White Women

When i see them get loud in support of black women wearing our natural hairstyles, I'll take them seriously.

It was our way of preserving our roots and remaining defiant against a society that tried to erase our history and humanity from us. It's more than just a style. And these ppl don't respect that, nor do they care. It's just another form of blackface to them.🙄

When black women wear weaves and extensions most of that hair is Brazilian, Malaysian, and some of the hair comes from Indian women, which I dont think are white women. Another thing is that there are a lot of black women who wear synthetic wigs, weaves, and extensions because human hair is too expensive and we know how to tweak it for it to look real. But babe is just straightened plastic. I wear synthetic hair which doesnt belong to no human, becayse himan hair is too expensive, plus.....(whispers) there are many black women who just get thier hair straight and they have ling lucious locks, but because people spread lies about how we dant grow long hair you may think its extensions but it is really her hair. Dont no black women wear white women hair, even white women try to get Brazil, Malaysian, and Indian hair, and once again thise arent white women. People who say what you just said try to push it back on black women when white women do the same thing, but dont get on white women for it. Plus weaves, extensions, and wigs arent cultural like braids are. Braids helped black women escape slavery, what do wigs, weaves and extensions have in common with that. Braids gave freedom, those are not comparable. Please stop using that as an excuse.

The little old white lady got the history of cornrows wrong. Cornrows came from slavery. Tribal hair styles like "bantu" knots, Fulani braids etc... that's tribal. Those braid patterns are connected to a whole African ethnic group. I think the issue is renaming it Boxer Braids when they are just cornrows. It's the attitude of "it looks better on us" then the people who created it that really passes people off then the actual wearing of it. If a white girl got Fulani braids and acknowledged where it came from I think there would be less push back tbh

[@nicolehill4812]

[@csexitube]

Its not just a hairstyle "SIS" Braids represent our heritage and survival of our ancestors. Mothers often braided rice seeds into their children’s hair to have something to survive on while on the slave trips or escaping from raided communities. They also hid beans, small cassava cuttings, maize and other grains depending on how thick the hair was. The ones who escaped the plantations to start their own settlements used those seeds and beans to grow food and live independently. Our thick hair texture was both purposeful and beautiful.

THANK YOU DESTINY!!! Because they were so so arrogant about it. I'm embarrassed. I'm African-American yes... I'm also Ghanaian that African woman with the Blonde braids beautiful but RUDE af.

[@ca7889]

Thanks to the content creator. This has been my point over the years-social media has given a platform to the uninformed and those that lack a certain amount of intelligence.

The last commentator said it best.

[@capricornus89]

The point that she’s trying to make is that we have to have a crown at in California just so we can wear our natural hair

[@TwiztidPixiel]

I don't say anything when they get braids. I know their hair will fall out. Move in silence ladies. 💗

[@emjohnson7207]

I was in the Air Force and in early to mid 90s the military put in regulations that braids could be worn, while in uniform. A blonde ww had a bw braid her hair. I thought it looked nice on her, but she was ordered to take it out. Those Officers (wm) told her it was not her culture. She had it taken down. I remember way back where Oprah has a black hairdresser on and he said white people damage their hair when they do braids. He explained it was the curve of the follicle or lack of curvy texture.

[@davidatkinson5858]

Imagine thinking that you can dictate how people can wear their hair? Or what they can say or think?😂😂because of their skin colour ffs 🙄

[@marlak4203]

exactly. the most stupidest stuff. it isn't deep like that at all nor are black people in America, in general, living like it was in the past when certain hairstyles meant those things. Smh.

[@whitneyf7265]

I am commenting specifically on her comments as a black woman African-American diaspora of Africa

[@slarvadain188]

Well for the first woman and others NOT from the United States, you wouldn’t get it because it pertains to the racial dynamics in America. Maybe somewhere else, you don’t have to put up with the racial bs and have others put YOU down while exploiting your culture. We would respect foreigners to tell us how it is in your countries but do not undermine what we are going through in America. She’s speaking as a black American woman in America.

[@lstr-wp2lq]

The Caribbean black people are apart of our people. We all are descendants of slaves. We are from the same nation. We are one nation inside of many nations.

I LOVE this content creator. She's smart n sweet

[@DestinyUteh]

Yes she is

[@AntoinetteMPetty]

I lost jobs because I wore braids/corn rows/locks and an afro. So if you're going to wear our styles, then fight for our right to wear them too. If you're going to wear our clothing, fight for our right to wear our clothing too. It's fine to love our styles, but find out why we feel the way we do. I love your communities, but I can't move in and be safe in your communities. Just saying 😌 🤷🏾

It's appreciated to see two sided arguments not just those in agreement with what she is saying.

-At that, if the first humans were black and it took CENTURIES before whites, Asians and others appeared, then anything that has been cultural for us to this day, literally since the beginning of time, has been appropriated and/or still started with and by us…

Lmao, I adopt the culture of wherever I live. Mix in my own. When I move on, I have more to bring. Cultural appropriation is a funny thing to whine about.

[@shagrace9203]

Thank you for your understanding xxxx

[@dharmon8798]

Well for me I don't care who wears Braids, but know that there will he people of color who doesn't like it. For one reason it was the white employers that said that Black people couldn't wear our natural hair, Braids, Dreads, Airfros,etc. Then the school system, then there comes the outrage of what God put on our heads. It wasn't until No Derek came out in defense of a Black woman wearing Braids at her Post Office job people started to take a look at the truth. Not only was the Lady dressed to a tee, her hair was neat.

[@RoRoNotRoseta]

Ignorance is bliss. At one point in time they deemed our braids as "unprofessional","ratchet", and we were considered"hoodrats". They were looked down on. Countless women lost there jobs because of it. All because of ww/wm. We've been doing these styles for YEARS. But just as soon as Kim K and wm wore them on runways and in photoshoots they became "chic". Now the very people who treated us horribly because of it want to fight for the right to wear them. Funny how whenever something from us is worn or done by us it's seen as bad. Then they✋🏻 decide to do it the stereotypes are changed. It's weird.

[@andramcneil5743]

Just remember lots of things was taken from the Niijii people of American even oh we are as a people we didn't come from Africa we was already here before Columbus came

Facts

[@whitneyf7265]

Yes many different cultures around the world have a different braiding pattern based off of culture and believe religion and hair texture. But what that girl the black girl is talking about what is being copycat is specifically black African culture

[@lane89]

Other women wear braids as a cute style we wear braids to upkeep our hair and their cute, at the end of the day I don’t believe they fully understand the history of our hair and why it’s annoying that they discard our feelings about their actions and behaviors and yet want us to fight for them for everytime their feelings hurt. It just don’t make sense that they even named everything invented by white people talking about culture when culture is about history and how that common tradition came to be. They just rocking braids like it’s a trend they copy everything we do but don’t give us credit. These people are narcissists.

[@khem127]

Thank you for this video and your opinion Destiny. I remember when Black women had to wear wigs made out of straight hair in order to get jobs. White people and others conveniently forget about that. They still talk about our butts, but White women are caled thick when they get butt augmantation. I won't talk about how lips are still made fun of, but they get their lips enlarged to be called beautiful. She mentioned the most important thing. Wytes talked aout our music, many Black geniuses died poor, because even though they liked our music, they would'nt hire the Black musician or play the Black music until they found a wyte person to approppriate the music. The Wyte appropriater then became a millionaire. This happens over and over again. They steal our clothing styles and become rich, while they deny the Black originator any credit for his creations or jobs. Wer'e just tired of this disrespect.

[@bretooty]

Some of these stitch creators are missing the whole point.

[@Kevin.e.Turner]

So where is that Korean girl at that was hating on black men traveling abroad that you all were hyping up? Why isn't she coming to black females defense this time, since she's a feminist who would defend women no matter what?🤔🤔🤔

[@jimmycee5247]

Even if the sister did or didn't wear other people's stuff, she's still the most beautiful in the world. She is not African by the way. She's indigenous to the American continent just as Africans are to Africa. Africans themselves know this fact. This sister is absolutely correct in what she's saying. People are jealous of her because she's the standard of the world, and the world copies her, like it or not.

[@shirleylevy1306]

I'm just going to go ahead and say it we can't have shit.😤😤🤔

[@ObsidianBlaze]

Hmmm, why am I getting Hutu and Tutsi vibes? I watch aesthetics. I am an American and simply don't care anymore. If we pierce a butt cheek, trust and believe some Caucasoid will do the same. Blondes??? Oh my! Check out Australian Aborigines...darker skinned than me and NATURALLY blonde in some places. Recessive genetics. Nothing to brag about, it just is. Tomorrow, my hair will be burgundy...not blonde. 😆 It was purple a month ago. 🤭🤫 As long as the melanated are coiled, don't worry about the rest. Straighten all you want, the coils will come back. I agree with the workplace mess, Crown Act. Time to work for ourselves. I can work in a robe...ijs.

[@whitneyf7265]

Why is it that Latin America get a green light pass on the fact that they had slaves first African slaves

[@blessed3779]

I see there are a lot of uninformed people in this chat that are not aware of the “Melanesian” tribe in Africa who have blonde hair that grows from their scalp; and I guess y’all are not aware of the “Tuaregs” tribe in Africa that has blue eyes-so please stop using the example of black people wearing blonde hair as a rebuttal, it is misguided. At the end of the day BW are the only humans who carry the genes for all races on earth-please listen to a Jane Elliot lecture or one of her books to educate yourselves. Also, stop conflating eyelashes and nails with hair. Synthetic eyelashes and nails are a fabricated product. BLACK HAIR is cultural because it is a hairdresser style connected to African lifestyle that had a symbolic meaning and even showed a social status within tribes. Oh an before some ignorant person brings up the synthetic hair used to do braids. BLACK people are the only culture that GENETICALLY grows 4A, 4B, 4C textured hair (especially that 4C) from the scalp; therefore we can actually where braids and locs without adding synthetic hair to our own hair. If you don’t know what 4C textured hair is-GOOD. Mind your business, leave black spaces alone, and keep it moving. “BLACK HAIR” was used as a symbolism of empowerment against the racist oppression of white supremacy and it grew exponentially in the 1960’s and 1970’s. It was always for the descendants of slaves to reconnect to and have some symbolence to our African roots-knowing that are lineage goes back to the CONTINENT of Africa. So it means more to black Americans than just it being a hairstyle. The sad part is that BW as annoying as culture appropriation is-we all know the “duplication” just don’t hit the same! “The look” don’t quite come off the same as when BW do our thang……even if it looks nice on other races, it is always just slightly off. For BW: we understand that we are viewed at the bottom of the totem pole in the social hierarchy-WE SHOULD PAY ATTENTION ONLY TO OUR GROWTH and HEALING and SPEND ENERGY EMPOWERING, ENCOURAGING, and SUPPORTING each other in spite of the BS; and ignore all else!

People be grasping. First off lash extensions came from Ancient Egypt, wasn't created by a white woman or firm l from Brazil. The FIRST documented use of lash extensions can be found in ancient Egypt. Tanning? Mamma the girl is black, she does into the sun she automatically tans, tf u mean. Braids come in all styles, u know what the hell black people mean, when we talk about Braids. I personally don't care either way. But don't be ignorant about what people truly mean
