Children can function under discipline and guidelines
there are even military schools, the end result isn't about always making a soldier
and schools that have uniform policies promote individualism in other ways, like the arts etc
That's a good point if they were enforcing a uniform hairstyle amongst the student body. but Kids are still free to wear various different approved hairstyles.
They are only outlawing certain hairstyles, nothing unform about that.

and the particular hairstyles that get banned are always popular black hairstyles and nothing else.
sorry yall, no juelzing logic into this. its just anti black end of story.

Yes :dahell:

why? because black hair doesn't conform to euro centric standard. Ie Cism

They got these antiquated ideas from colonization influence. they weren't doing this historically prior to this.
In fact there is historical evidence the opposite was true. Europeans and Arabs that migrated to ancient egypt adopted the local hairstyles and fashions.

Cleopatra is a famous example of this. She was greek rocking fake locs to look more egyptian.
No, and you ignored everything I mentioned. It has little do with hatred of FBA or self-hate and everything to do with association. It's why they wear uniforms and want everything watered down and consistent in regards to fashion. Cleopatra rocking braids further supports my point. Was she hating her white side or wanting to fit in and actually look the part? These people aren't putting baby hairs on a pedestal because how many heads of states are rocking them? We have white people who rock them and no one cares because they're not heads of states or doctors or anything.

fine we can agree to disagree on the motivation.

The point still remains that this is arbratiry and pointless. Assigning a metric to certain hairstyles or others not based on science. but personal tastes.
(whether that motivation be racism or otherwise) its still just personal taste and unnecessary to the children's development. All those leaders not wearing the hairstyles it likely due to this indoctrination, not some necessity.

Yeah, I do think it is heavy-handed and unnecessary. I think, however, if there are actual issues and such, they should counter-balance it with education over the issue.

Are these styles popular in Jamaican classroom?
Thats why I asked which white trend is popping in Jamaica.
And if they are banning strictly FBA culture, why did they ban dreadlocs?
FBA and/or black as i have mention several times in this thread. Any black hairstyle that deviates too far from the euro centric standards.


What does popularity have to do with it? if there is valid reason to ban a hairstyle it should stand the test of logic regardless shouldn't it. Its dangerous whether or not 1 student wears it or 100s right? They ban locs in american schools. it isn't like that is the most popular hairstyle over here. I seen cases where its literally just one black student in the entire school forced to cut them.

Maybe they felt it was a distraction
And if those black boys were getting bowl cuts in waves, how do you know it would be ban?

This is not that. We're not talking about judges wearing wigs here. This is about having a standard for ourselves and how that is maintained and with what nuances. The usual "well, what harm can it do?" approach is how you end up with the US public school system, and nobody wants that. Not even Americans.




@CopiousX I see what you're saying, they've had a distinct shift since earlier this year. Either way, real face or mask, I'm not concerned about that. The idea is what needs addressing.
Nah disagree completely
