PHOTOS: African-Brazilians march for curly, natural hair
Roughly a week ago, hundreds of African-Brazilian men and women took to the streets to protest against the injustices faced by people of African descent in their country, while exhibiting the diverse beauty of women of colour by showing their curly hair
Hundreds of African-Brazilian men, women, young and old gathered in Salvador, Brazil on November 7 to march against injustices on Brazilian men and women of colour. They walked to affirm the “black aesthetic” and the fight for citizenship of black women and men in Brazil.
