Mr. Rock is attempting to wake up a lot sleeping "negroes" who are trying to fulfill a "White Dream". It's pathetic to see Black women straightening their young daughters hair, for their child to be excepted in a society that demands that they disregard their own god given image to assimilate. Instead that Black mother should make an attempt to educate her child that hair texture doesn't define them, you can fine the so-called "kinky" hair in parts of Asia, Latin Amer., etc the majority of Black parents are not seeking true information about historical Afica if that was the case Chris Rock would not have to make this documentery, there would be no gang violence, AIDS or drug addiction. If the majority of BLACK, AFRICAN people reach back get connected to our African, history and culture.... Selina Esther I think you’re missing the point.
