We would all have been better off without her invention. Black wealth could have gone into the bank instead of being slapped on our heads.

@1:15pm. Unfortunately around the time
She invented, relaxers
Hot straightening combs,wigs
Were the only go to
Which weaken healthy black hair
If you had a job or career
Back then and you had
Interact with certain other people
It was encouraged to use the above
Natural wasn't encouraged or was accepted
Back then like it is now and
Actually weave is a protective hair style
What the alleged problem was
Was the treaty and contracts that arose
To allow "others" to come in
And dominate the black hair enterprise
Before that. The black hair wealth
Was still going back within our communities
And not all on the head
