What do you think of this issue?
As I’m not black I can’t say anything to the actual meaning of the braids and all that. But on her those braids ugly as hell
Why is it not racially appropriate for her to have those? I’m just wondering. I don’t like them and they’re not all that attractive but I would like to know why they r not appropriate
