And a bigger movement has been gaining traction in the state of California. In July, California was the first state to ban racial discrimination against people based on their natural hairstyle when Gov. Gavin Newsom signed the Crown Act bill into law. According toThe New York Times, this bill is designed to update the definition of race in existing law. Now, it will be inclusive of “traits historically associated with race, including, but not limited to, hair texture and protective hairstyles.”
“In a society in which hair has historically been one of many determining factors of a person’s race, and whether they were a second-class citizen, hair today remains a proxy for race,” the bill says,according to theNYT. “Therefore, hair discrimination targeting hairstyles associated with race is racial discrimination.”
