Requests:  0 Summary:  Ford investigates Afros and dashikis, go-go boots and hotpants of the sixties, hip hop's baggy jeans and bamboo earrings, and the #BlackLivesMatter-inspired hoodies of today. The history of these garments is deeply intertwined with Ford's story as a black girl coming of age in a Midwestern rust belt city: experimenting with the Jheri curl; rocking oversized, brightly colored jeans and Timberlands at an elite boarding school where the white upper crust wore conservative wool shift dresses. She also talks about the pain of seeing black style appropriated by the mainstream fashion industry. -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Nonfiction 391 Fo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 391 Fo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Nonfiction 391 Fo Checked In Add Copy to MyList
