We just posted the story of 7 year old Tiana Parker who was taken out of school because the charter school she attended would not let her wear her beautiful natural dreadlocks…which I affectionately call Locs. Above is the link to the open letter to Tiana from the MSNBC News Host.

This was so touching, #BlackWomanStandUp Salutes Debra Harris-Perry for using her platform to inspire, encourage and to #StandUP to an issue such as this, which affects black women and girls daily.
