Blue Eyes Light Skin and Blonde Hair Weaves
Learning to Love Our Own Skin
Blue eyes, bleached skin and blonde hair weaves.
A contradiction? Or a juxtaposition of women not yet free to fully embrace their ethnicity?
Believing that her natural beauty is an imposition, so afraid to make the transition from the expected, does she really believe her heritage goes undetected?
Not realizing that true freedom comes with the release of conditions
imposed by an outdated system.
So she wears this fake composition of what she believes beauty should be
blue eyes, bleached skin and blonde hair weaves.
Stop relaxing your weaves and instead relax the misconceptions and perceptions of beauty.
Free yourself of the phony contrivances and let freedom ring naturally.
Embrace what is you, to thine own self be true.
Forget Black Barbie and Marilyn Monroe and set your true natural beauty aglow with your
dark eyes, brown skin and black Afros.
