Cultural Conversations: The Tangled Politics of Hair -- Why What's On Your Head Matters to Society
2019-04-23 13:00 - 14:30 (America/Los_Angeles) | Crossroads Community Center 1600 NE 10th St Bellevue
In April's Cultural Conversation, we'll hear from speaker and acclaimed UW educator Anu Taranath as she explores the role of the hair on our heads. Using song, video, poetry, and imagery, Anu poses the question, "Why is one kind of hairstyle understood as 'better' than another?" Encouraging us to go deeper, we'll take a surprising look at beauty, bias, belonging and examine the cultural perceptions which influence our judgement of hair and the individual.
