Why do white people, non-blacks, and people with non-coily hair want to be in the Natural Hair Movement so bad?!

Like- look at this!

These were the comments to a YouTube short: responding to a Tiktok comment that said straight hair is natural(which is what happens when you let the curly Shirley’s into the movement because y’all wanted to be INcLUSiVE)

Btw, black people did start the first natural hair movement in the 60s. It was known as the black is beautiful movement, and have had natural hair shows 70 years ago. Don’t suddenly care about our shit when your people wouldn’t even want to go near it and call our hair nappy no less than 3 decades ago.

#im tired of these non blacks #and the fact some shucking and jiving black women decided to join in and give their white appeasing selves an opinion #black girls of tumblr #when will y’all learn to stop being inclusive with black movements #you shouldn’t have non black people feeling comfortable enough to include themselves in our movements #we went from oh white and non blacks can be in the NHM too to #straight haired whites and non blacks can be in the NHM too!#like nah!#these non blacks and whites in the comments should be so fearful of opening their mouths when it comes to our movements #speak on our movements and you’ll lose your fricking job #natural hair movement #gatekeep black culture #coily hair #natural hair community #cultural appropriation #racism
