In the 1950s, women could not vote, no bodily autonomy, largely expected to work in the home and have no aspirations. She could not have her own credit card and could not own her own property.
During the same period black people faced discriminatory practices that made it difficult to vote. We did not have access to the same public bathrooms, access to the same education, investment opportunities like buying a home. The results of just a few of these discriminatory practices continue to impact the black community today. One small insight is the hair that I am wearing that grows naturally out of my scalp was seen as an ugly reflection of how God made us. Black people especially women, were encouraged to use chemicals to straighten their hair to present as "acceptable', AKA closer to whiteness.
Everything is political. Happy Halloween.
Remember to vote.
P.S. The gag is I'll be wearing this skirt next week.
