no way you will be put in a management position with that shyt on your head.

Real talk...right now they just 'tolerate' you
my field doesnt have management positions, we are all management- nobody just tolerates me....
BUT...
do you think there is any difference in discriminating on hair and discriminating based on your African first/last name?

First thing you see is not my name.

Plenty of people with high level positions who have African names (Barack Obama)
Ask yourself what would happen if Obama had cornrows.

my manhood is not validated by you. whether you choose to wear you hair long or not should be that individual's choice, not a corporations. if you cannot see the discrimination at play you are a blind fool
Of course it's your choice, just like it's the corporation's choice not to hire you because of it.

as long as people keep their hair clean and not over the top distracting
any style should be acceptable in the workplace.
I would never have a problem with somebody walking into my office looking like this

But

I don't want to be trapped with low hygiene people for 8 hours in the office.
you can make an argument against dreads. but as far as see i've cornrows are(or at leeast can be) very clean and neat.
now if you have somebody walking into work like this.

nikkas in this thread acting like dreads/cornrows are being banned while corporate cacs are walking around with hippie hair :dahell:

You have to look a certain way for corporate jobs....and that applies to white people, too

Now if they start asking for us to perm our hair, THEN I'll be outraged :heh:

True
I've seen countless cacs get shytted on for having dreads
or caveman beards.
