A white women touched my hair, so I touched hers right back.

I was talking to this white women today when she started giving me the whole "your hair is so pretty" and proceeded to grab a few strands of my hair. So, without missing a beat (I've been training for this moment) I was like "So is your hair!" And then I ran my fingers through her fake blonde bob.

The look on her face will live in my head for one thousand years. The instantaneous surprise and confusion that she very quickly tried to mask with a smile.

Twas perfect. So empowering.
