Legislation to protect people of color from facing discrimination based on their hair styles will be heard in the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday and could receive a vote on the Senate floor as early as Thursday.
Senate Bill 32, also known as the Delaware CROWN Act (Create a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair), is designed to prevent students, workers, tenants, and others from being subjected to unequal treatment due to their braids, locks, twists and other hairstyles or hair textures historically associated with race.
“Delawareans of all races and ethnicities – but particularly people of color – should not have to wait any longer for the General Assembly to pass legislation that advances fairness, equity and justice in our state,” said prime sponsor Senator Darius Brown, who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee.
“Black hair is a fundamental part of the Black experience,” said Senator Brown, D-Wilmington East. “This legislation will make it clear that the State of Delaware does not accept our appearance being used as a weapon of harassment and discrimination. We are proud of who we are as African Americans and will not allow ourselves to be shamed by insensitivity to our culture, our history or our hair styles.”
I really hope idiots like this don’t procreate. This is what planned parenthood is for.
This one takes the “Stupidest thing I have heard this week!” award!
While having a different hair style is not a big deal, some of these hair styles can harbor lice and other critters.
If you’re interacting with people, this could be an issue.
Employers will find a different ‘official’ excuse to fire/not hire!
Jesus, Mary,& Joseph. Is there any other victim bullshit these losers can dream up. Next they’ll want free hair weaves from welfare.
Total bunch of crap
So, they’re making impossible for the peacocks and orangutans to not be hired.
