Comic for 7/18/2018
In today’s comic, I offer my own theory behind some white folk’s obsession with touching black folk’s hair. Besides the obvious fetishization of all things ethnic, I would also posit that physical contact with melinated skin or Africanized hair somehow allows them to, momentarily, channel a potent (if somewhat limited) “Black Experience”. The one thing they cannot own. It’s just a theory.
Whatever the case may be, if you like touching black people’s hair,
