The Unyielding Roots: What is Your Hair Story? collection is so needed and a beautiful gift to Black women everywhere. I love the wide range of voices and experiences. Kiana Davis has gifted us with the experiences of close to one hundred  Black women and their relationships with their hair. There is something magical that happens as you read the collection, and you see yourself reflected through other people’s stories. Davis gives us renewed strength and courage to resist the narrative of what we’ve been told it means to be beautiful.
