hair
After watching the interview and going over the two readings from WebCt, i never realized how much of an impact hair could have on people. I guess i never realized this issue because my hair(for the most part) has not been unusually long. No one ever told me I had to cut my hair. The whole race and hair issue never hit me either, but that may be due to the fact that i was never really exposed to such an issue as a child. For me, its hard to understand what the big deal is with hair. I was never raised to judge people based on appearances. One would think that by this time in US society, we would be well beyond basing a persons values on the length or color of his hair.

I agree with you matt i feel the same way. It never really was something that was a problem for me growing up, so in that regard i was never exposed to it. But after watching the interview and doing the readings the race issue about hair really did make sense to me, and it is something that i am now more aware of. It is more than just wanting what you don't have, it was something that a hole race had to deal with.
