I Am Not My Hair

NAAAHR-Milwaukee is offering a panel discussion, "I Am Not My Hair," on June 23rd at 5:30pm. Join us for this panel discussion on the real life experiences in the workplace, the role of HR/Talent in ending hair discrimination and steps you can take now to support this movement.

The CROWN Act created in 2019 by Dove and the CROWN Coalition to ensure protection against discrimination based on race-based hairstyles by extending statutory protection to hair texture and protective styles such as braids, locs, twists, and knots in the workplace and public schools.
