The law, according to the New York Times, was imposed to address the treatment of black people. It explicitly outlines in guidelines that New Yorkers have the right to rock “
I’m consistently baffled by the things that are just now becoming law. Last week it was the anti-lynching bill championed by Senators Kamala Harris, Tim Scott, and Cory Booker. This week it’s the ability to rock our hair as we please.
