Butler Traditional High School in Louisville, Kentucky Bans Black Hairstyles - In 2016

“No dreadlocks, cornrows, twists, mohawks, and no jewelry will be worn in hair. Hair must be a natural color. No two-toned hair or severe contrasts. This includes unnatural colors.” No male may dye, tint, or highlight his hair in any way. It also bans afros more than two inches in length and any cut-in design.”

In addition to asking all of you to call and email the school and school district about this RACIST policy, I’ve come up with the ULTIMATE clapback response. I’m asking you to send photos of yourselves and your glorious black hair to the principal and school superintendent. When I write my letter and take my picture, I will update this post.
