In the beginning, all "Civilized" Black people practiced cleanliness and good grooming. They kept their bodies clean and groomed their hair in many ways.
One of the Black mans favorite hair styles was what we now call "Dred Locks".
EVEN NOMADIC ARABS GROOMED THEIR HAIR!
.
ANCIENT BLACK PEOPLE WERE SO CONCERNED WITH GROOMING THEIR HAIR THAT THEY CREATED THE PROFESSION OF "BARBER"! .

This African-American family was photographed in 1862 after Union forces captured the Sea Island coastal area of South Carolina. One of four photographs taken by Timothy O’Sullivan of the J. J. Smith plantation, this picture was subsequently exhibited at Alexander Gardner’s Washington, D.C., photography gallery in September 1863.
Even Blacks of meager means have always tried to comport themselves with DIGNITY!

In the United States, Blacks in films were able to keep their dignity (at least in appearance) until the Irishman Hal Roach created the "Our Gang" series of short films (1922 - 1944).
Of the Black cast, only Matthew "Stymie" Beard, was able to keep his dignity.
William “Billie” Thomas played the role of Buckwheat
Allen Hoskins played Farina
When Farina got frightened, his hair would stand up and twirl around.

In that same era, a Black woman developed products that would make Black hair look just like White hair.
. Madam C. J. Walker
Sarah Breedlove (December 23, 1867 – May 25, 1919), known as Madam C. J. Walker, was an African American entrepreneur (1905 develop her own hair-care business), philanthropist, and a political and social activist. Eulogized as the first female self-made millionaire in America, she became one of the wealthiest African American women in the country. Walker made her fortune by developing and marketing a line of beauty and hair products for black women through Madame C.J. Walker Manufacturing Company, the successful business she founded. Walker was also known for her philanthropy and activism. She made financial donations to numerous organizations and became a patron of the arts. .
Coincidentally in HOLLYWOOD, Albino men with Slicked down hair became the fashion.
.
. So the Black guys started Mimicking the Albino guys.

The Vietnam War, with the U.S. as the principle occurred between 1962 and 1975.
58,315 were killed in action, 153,303 were injured.
Blacks suffered disproportionately high casualty rates in Vietnam. In 1965 alone they comprised almost one out of every four combat deaths. With the draft increasing due to the troop buildup in South Vietnam, the military significantly lowered its admission standards. In October 1966, Defense Secretary Robert McNamara initiated Project 100,000 which further lowered military standards for 100,000 additional draftees per year. McNamara claimed this program would provide valuable training, skills and opportunity to America's poor – a promise that was never carried out. Many black men who had previously been ineligible could now be drafted, along with many poor and racially intolerant white men from the southern states.

Troops of all colors coped with the horrors of war with the used of drugs like Heroin and Cocaine, which were readily available.
.
When the troops came home, they brought their drug habits with them. .
In just a few years, Black neighborhoods - especially the poor ones, were devastated by drug use and drug related crime.

^In the 1980s, Albino disrespect for Blacks and Black stupidity, came together to form the latest blight on Black dignity.

Clueless quintroon is so far removed from Black people and worships Euros so much he doesn't even know the Afro hairstyle was an outward manifestation of inward pride, a pride suppressed when wearing concolene in imitation of whites' lank wavy and straight hair. White god complexed Micky thinks Afros were a knee jerk reaction to the hippy jesus hairstyle. The 15/16ths white boy strips Blacks of agency and self-determination.
Same with dreadlocks. He attributes it to a B sci-fi movie created by whites. Dumbass Micky does not now and never has lived in a black community if he thinks dreadlocks start three feet in length. For authentic locks bearers, depending when they decided to throw away comb scissors and razor, their head will look like San peppercorn BB shots or those springs on the brother from another planets head. Those of us of a black community know this because we see it in our day to day life on the heads of our neighbors friends and family members whom we interact with month to month year to year decade to decade.
The basis for dreadlocks in the West is the vow of the Nazir in Numbers 6. The most famous self choice Nazir in the West is John the Baptist. Moses Maimonides in his Mishnah Torah explains that Naziruth (dreadlocks) are an untended vine and the hair of the must be untouched by comb scissors or razor for a minimum of 30 days up to a lifetime. The hairs of the Nazir's head are considered holy unto the Eternal.
Holiness/vow to god is an attribute of undisturbed locked hair throughout Africa. Unfortunately in the West the culture is diluted and polluted and dreadlocks have become a mere meaningless hairstyle.
Dread does not mean fear or horror. Dread has the 17th century King James Bible definition of awe of the deity. So in a sense the perverters of tradition roots and culture are right to call those salon cultivated imitations locs, for there is nothing dread about them nor do their sporters refrain from grapes or contact with the dead as a Nazir must do. Rasta knew and kept Hebrew law of Naziruth from the start over 70 years ago.
SchizAlbinoMicky is totally clueless about Blacks' hair (which by the way comes in a variety of textures) and knows absolutely nothing about the coily types of our hair.
Micky needs to keep to the hair of his comic book creation Euro blacks who in his fantasy dominated that continent and instituted the transAtlantic trade.
On us locked hair is nasty and ignoble (re the Spanish coin of Punic era mahout and elephant) but is the essence of alright on the white European head of Vercingetorix. For Micky, white is right. Oops, I forgot these whites are really black. At least in Micky's 15/16th excuse for a mind.

THIS IS VERCINGETORIX. . . As with lamin, I vacillated for a time, trying to figure out if he was just an incredibly stupid/Brain damaged Negro, or a trolling Albino Mole.
Like the original ausar moderator whom he replaced, This fool is an Albino!
Where they could control the direction of Black inquiry and discussion with Albinos posing as Blacks - lioness being a later addition.

You are obviously out your rabid ass mind, you straight haired misanthropic white boy. Hee hee hee hee hee.
Black inquiry = the predominant black hair texture is nasty? Black inquiry = Africa is a continent of the uncivilized? Black inquiry = Oedipus complex admiration & adoption of Europe(ans)? Black inquiry = Eurocentric judgement against everything black? Black inquiry = SchizAlbinoMicky?
Black inquiry = the worst of white racism???
Yup, no bout a doubt it, quintroon, you out your raving rabid ass mind. Hee hee hee hee hee

Lol "maybe if I use a black avatar it will convince them!" Lol I see this even in youtube comments. I like seeing what they do in response to any research and discussions we have and it always seems eerily the same.
Albino pretends to be black, sometimes uses avatar, if you get them angry enough or you are too challenging for them they will sometimes slip up and reveal they are a mole. Then if you catch it they all of a sudden do not know how to read or the text addressing that or anything that directly counters them turns invisible to their very eyes. If things get too hairy for them they will sometimes resort to grammar checking your written exchange with them, as if that invalidates anything you are saying lol.
Why does it feel like they have some kind of religious rule book when they try this stuff?
