The Politics of Black Hair is an event series hosted in Toronto, ON
Tickets on sale now! Tickets can be purchased here or here!
We want this series to be an opportunity to begin a deeper dialogue amongst our community, beyond the natural vs relaxed debate. We intend to create a space where we can discuss the social, economic, historical, and environmental factors concerning Black Hair. Our hope is that at the end of every event someone will leave feeling empowered and enlightened.
