Résumé
From the kings and queens of Africa to the contemporary United States, a celebration of African American hair and its expressiveness, relation to identity, and why this history matters. A boldly illustrated nonfiction picture book about the historical roots of Black hair by a Black and Latine debut author-illustrator, perfect for 4-8-year-olds. Black hair is the crown for the African diaspora worldwide and a strong symbol of identity and beauty in a variety of communities.
It's a source of pride and expression, and from the times of kings and queens has demonstrated a person's life's journey. Yet as enslaved people, Black people had their hair taken from them as a way to remove their humanity. As African Americans struggled through history, their hair became a major source of resiliency and a way to take back their power. Written and illustrated by Sylvia Rodriguez, a Black and Latine debut author, Black Hair Can embraces the expansive history of Black hair and why people should proudly show off their styles-from sculpting and shaping to cornrows, Fulani braids, Afros, and more.
Back matter includes a hair pattern chart showing different hair types, along with different kinds of braids and twists. There are also great "how-to" hairstyles for children to try out.
