I'm mixed race but white presenting, aside from my hair. Growing up in the 70s and 80s when sleep, feathered, blonde hair was the thing was a nightmare.

I hated my hair. I've written about it.

Now, I love it! It's a symbol of what makes me who I am. It's my mane of pride. It's a gift from my ancestors and a symbol of our resilience, strength and pride.
