I mean, Tiger Woods won his first Masters 28 years ago now and was probably worshipped more than any single sports star I've ever seen. Arthur Ashe was a huge tennis star in the 70s.

NBC is just ridiculous.

I am struggling to understand the point here.

Explain it to me like I am not retarded.
I'm pretty sure you do understand what they're doing...

Believe it or not 28 states have now enacted this or similar laws, including traditionally red states like Texas and Tennessee. It started in California because of course it did.

The thinking behind this is that allegedly some people have used typically ethnic hairstyles to effectively discriminate against minority groups as some sort of racism loophole.

For example, you can't tell a black person that he or she can't eat in your restaurant. But, prior to this bill you could legally say things like your restaurant has a dress code that includes things like no dreadlocks or corn rows. That would disproportionately affect black people.

This bill effectively closes that loophole.

Don't get me wrong, I don't I agree with the bill and I think it's absolutely government overreach but that's the thinking.

The racism card falls on deaf ears with this hombre. I am to my rope's end with everything being racist. When you cry wolf enough times people stop listening to you and that's where I'm at right now. I wish these dumbasses could actually see real racism that was around in the 60s. They have no clue how well off minorities have it now.

To signal to minorities that she's one of the "good" whites.
Yes, I must show my kids that black people are better than them. So fucking weird. Me I'll throw all those toys in a tub of other toys with no thoughts because I'm annoyed they didn't pick anything up

Wow, I'm sickened by your racist approach at clean up time.
