City of Columbus Implements CROWN Act The legislation adds two provisions to the Columbus City Code: “Race” is inclusive of traits historically associated with race, including, but not limited to, hair textures and protective and cultural hairstyles; “Protective and cultural hairstyles” includes, but is not limited to, such hairstyles as braids, locs, cornrows, bantu knots, afros, and twists, whether or not hair extensions or treatments are used to create or maintain any such style, and whether or not hair ornaments, beads or head wraps adorn the hair. Further, the legislation expands discrimination to include employment, fair housing, public accommodations, and education. Guess these signs no longer apply

I let it fly in the breeze
And get caught in the trees Give a home for the fleas in my hair A home for fleas A hive for the buzzin' bees A nest for birds There ain't no words |

We get it, employers don't like to be bossed around by the government. Tell me something I don't know. Why exactly should we be bothered by this ordinance? It's saying discrimination on the basis of hair style amounts to discrimination on the basis of race. Well, they're not wrong, even if it is clumsily written. As long as it doesn't interfere with doing the job why does it matter to an employer? I think you're really underestimating the importance of hair style to Black culture, that's why a law like this gets passed.
