Impact Of ‘The Afro’, 1966.
In a moment that captured the cultural shifts of the 1960s, Robin Gregory was crowned Homecoming Queen at Howard University; proudly rocking an afro at a time when the Civil Rights Movement was redefining Black identity and pride.
Howard, at the time referred to as “The Black Harvard,” wasn’t just any university. It modeled itself after the Ivy League schools, training Black students to excel and compete in a society dominated by white institutions. By the 1960s, Howard had produced half of the nation’s Black physicians and a fourth of its Black lawyers; a testament to its prestige and influence.
Gregory’s win wasn’t just a pageant title.
It was a celebration of Black beauty, culture, and self-determination. Her afro symbolized a generation reclaiming identity, rejecting Eurocentric standards, and embracing heritage

Barbz, aliens land in Gag City & you need to give them the names of my BEST 3 songs. They MUST love the songs….or else. Our planet is depending on you.
Which songs do you name?
Hey, you!
I’m not going to write something about how strong & resilient you are b/c most of the time you shouldn’t have to be.
Today, instead of being “perfect”—
I’d rather you laugh at the mean joke, put your foot out & trip someone walking by, order food for yourself & eat it in front of hungry family members, block ppl mid text, listen to ppl’s problems then just say “oh ok”, play your favorite song all day, admire your beauty…inside & out.
What would they do without you?
Happy #InternationalWomensDay 🎀
He ended everyone else’s careers when he did this. And he was only 10 years old. Don’t embarrass yourself trying to compare Michael Jackson with anyone. It’s impossible.
