More like Stevie Wonder's song as he refers to "nappy headed boy"? So we really shouldn't be angry with Imus for what he said regarding women, some who are of African descent?
Your opinions stated here conflicts your comments made in other threads, there is a dichotomy of caring what the KKK does and how you have chosen to present yourself to my Sorority on GC. Now, if you think you will be able to impress my sorors on Howard's campus with the way you have chosen to present yourself, be my guest. Let us hope you are as intelligent as you think you are...
The word "nappy" comes from a certain derivation to describe Africans who were enslaved. The true designs and shapes of hair from Africans transcend the nascent truth of one's one self-discovery of his or her "roots". Because there was strong salt water interaction on the slave ships the true coiffure was mangled. Then the heads were shaved as well as jewelery and other accouterments of the "savage" nature... So when the kid"napper" and enslaver choose to define your nascent self, know where it comes from and why...

Admittidly, didn't know that last piece of information, learn something new everyday. But I'm still confident that I haven't contradicted myself in previous threads. I maintain that KKK is wrong for their pursuit of "white supremacy" and that their actions, as usual, are in dissonance with I beleive in. The fact that I am not pained over the term
nappy, is still the same despite how it is viewed by the KKK themselves or otherwise.
