Comedian Chris Rock has a new documentary called Good Hair. It seems that some black women are upset!!!!
As I watched the Oprah show, women were on skype, sending emails and in the audience and they were angry! One women said that Chris is giving away our secrets! What secrets? That we have a desire to be beautiful, have healthy, gorgeous hair even if some of it is purchased!
Chris broke it down and said: I am paraphrasing, at the end of the day do you!!! What matters most is on the inside! That is what counts. God sees the heart and knows your works! The creator of the universe does not care about length, texture, smooth edges or your kitchen! So therefore rock your hair ANYWAY!! If it is your hair cool, if you bought the hair that's cool too!
What would happen if Jesus came back and said I am looking for inner beauty and you are lacking in your inner beauty? You can't buy a hair weave for the soul! Let's make this a call to action and work on our inner beauty. It would be a shame if Jesus came back and we are pretty on the outside but tore up on the inside!

Hey BeBe,
ReplyDeleteI tried to post to the Chris Rock entry and couldn't....
These are my thoughts:
"This is so true Brenda! I've never got the hype about hair... Long, short, straight, & curly, I've worn my hair in all those ways. There was never a time when I felt like a different person on the inside. I think Chris Rock did a wonderful thing when he did this film, exploring an issue that has plagued black women for decades. You are absolutely correct when you ask the question about inner beauty, a thing so many people are lacking…. "
Love you!!!
