Not Attained By Sudden Flight
August 25, 2011:
This girl’s name is Kalifa Logan. Back in like 2004, she was denied admission to a Catholic school because of her hair. Her locs were considered to be against the dress code and representative of a ‘cult’ and ‘immorality’. In other words, they didn’t think her natural self was good enough. Hmmmm, sound familiar?
I don’t know if she still has natural hair, but her locs were cute back then.
I’ve been painting alot and this dress was inspired from a piece I’m working on called Overgive. It’s been my summer uniform thus far and now it can be yours.
Hand printed, handmade in Brooklyn NY,
Edition: I’m going to make this dress until I’m done making it, each will be numbered.
