Summary

On this special episode release of Kinda Radical, I'm talking all things braiding. We start with a wide history of braiding that takes us through time and around the globe. We move into specific cultural examples of how braiding can mean more than just a hairstyle; it carries messages, ties you to your ancestors, and demonstrates your heritage and culture. Finally, I explain how braiding is, and will continue to be, political. To see more clips of the episode check out the Kinda Radical Instagram
