Don't Ask To Touch My Hair!

Dude!

The moment I saw this pic I was affected. I wasn't surprised. I wasn't amused. And I certainly wasn't happy. I knew exactly how Esperanza Spalding was feeling - like saying Little boy WTF is wrong with you! But I guess after winning your first Grammy... almost anything is palatable for a little while.

I'm not being harsh folks... really I'm not.
Unless you've experienced the can-I-touch-it's or the sudden-realization-that-someone's-hand-is-in-your-hair you might find this picture harmless. You might even consider it endearing. But before you come to that conclusion I ask that you read the post at Womanist Musings and the one over at Racialious and then let me know what you think about Mr. Bieber's actions.

Very interesting. And while you're at it -
