Hey there everyone. Since it's getting very hot and humid, I'm wondering what can I do to help prevent dryness? I've noticed that the warmer it's getting, the dryer my hair is.

White teacher kicks out black student over hair care product.

I hope the teacher is fired and has to walk the streets, giving blow jobs for a living for the rest of her life. The end.

Strange Request

I'm looking for High Quality Pictures of black people with afros. I don't care if it's stock photos or vintage 60s and 70s pics. I'm working on a fun project and hope that you all can help.

Thanks in advance!
