It's 2020, now I KNOW y'all know better than  to put your hands in a black persons hair, smh. Locs in the workplace; one of the most common concerns among people of color is how their natural will fair in Corporate America. Today my guest Kareem– a software engineer who has had both freeform and traditional locs–is kind of enough to lend us his story as a lesson in anti-assimilation. In a world that's constantly telling us who we are, it time we handed over our own list of demands and make "them adjust to us." Prepare to be blessed with 30 min of hard-earned wisdom.
