Politics of black people's hair in Botswana

Some contemporary writers who have explored the evolution of the black beauty movement, and it’s objectification and insistence on the ‘taming’ of blackness, have suggested that this can cause on African people, either a great self-liberation or self-hatred.

The politics have everything to do with human dignity, integrity, privacy, and has been subject of discrimination. These are all rights and freedoms. It is especially critical that the lens used to interrogate this is one that is African, and particularly, one that is native to Botswana.
