My Hair Goes Up uses essays and poetics to examine the California CROWN Act (SB 188), a law written to create a respectful, open workplace, and world, for natural hair.

This book is a poetic tribute to the lofty, helically shaped hair that deserves to exist freely, and it shares a heartening perspective on the norms surrounding the legacy of contrived racial divisions.

My Hair Goes Up poetically deconstructs problematic human divisions and explores solutions that will create an equal existence for all people.
