Today, Policy Director @lcylarbarrett and our client #DeAndreArnold will give testimony in the Texas House of Representatives on the need to pass the #CROWNAct. Natural hair discrimination is racial discrimination--and we can't allow that to stand. https://t.co/b61TiMGxKI
"I really hope this can shed a light on how this actually affects people. It’s not a trivial issue, this is real pain and suffering." - LDF client #DeAndreArnold, who testified this morning in Texas in support of the #CROWNAct.

"My hair has never had anything to do with my behavior or capacity to learn...I never knew that my identity would hold me back from graduating with friends that I knew since elementary school." --#DeAndreArnold

Too often Black ppl are denied educational & employment opportunities simply b/c of how we wear our hair and at far more frequent rates than any other racial or ethnic group. #Anti-Black hair discrimination has tangible costs. Our clients #DeAndreArnold & KB know this firsthand.
BREAKING: LDF won a major #naturalhair discrimination VICTORY that gives K.B., Black high school student & cousin to #DeAndreArnold, the right to attend classes regularly as opposed to being held in indefinite in-school suspension due to his natural hair.

#Hairdiscrimination is a form of racial discrimination. We continue to stand with #DeAndreArnold and against school grooming policies that are barriers to educational achievement. Join us to end hair discrimination in schools and the workplace: https://t.co/dqJ55XrjmL
Texas School Board votes unanimously to uphold policy that led to Black students' suspension https://t.co/7EBhgeLwpJ
This week we'll be back in court challenging #HairDiscrimination on behalf of our clients #DeAndreArnold & #KBBradford who were told they had to cut their locs to participate in school activities. For too long, Black hair has been policed. https://t.co/l3IpWzrE8x
Hair discrimination can also manifest in public school, @NAACP_LDF clients #DeAndreArnold and #KadenBradford were targeted and punished for wearing their natural, uncut locs at a high school in TX. Mr. Arnold was forced to miss his HS Graduation after 14 years w/in the district!
We continue to fight for justice for our clients #DeAndreArnold and #KadenBradford who were punished by Barbers Hill Independent School District for wearing their natural, uncut locs. DeAndre was forced to miss graduation from his school of 14 yrs. Kaden’s locs are still banned.
After refusing to cut his #dreadlocks, #DeandreArnold was told he couldn’t walk at #graduation. Ironically, #Coronavirus had the same plan for the entire country. We checked in with the HS senior @isiahcareyFOX26 @FOX26Houston

We are also leading the fight to end Black hair discrimination with courageous clients like #DeAndreArnold, #MyaCook, #DeannaCook and #ClintonStanleyJr. 4/6
Y’all remember the #DeAndreArnold story? They said that he couldn’t graduate due to his locs. #LoveThyHair

A year ago today, this was posted in the comment section on the @JolietPatch under an article about me running for City Council.
... still laughing. 😂
I love changing the ignorant perception associated with locs.

@scarfacemamas @TheeDreadGod @Gomolemo_17 Maybe that’s REALLY why those schools in Texas wanted #DeAndreArnold & #KadenBradford to cut their hair. 🤔
