It is one of the trademarks during late 60’s and 70’s : the Afro haircut was worn as the assertion of an identity, the symbol of the strong link with Africa. The famous slogan: Black Is Beautiful.

For political reasons, for aesthetic views, for trendy questions also… Back to certain pics which had participated in the history of the music.

 

A possible soundtrack…
We People Who Are Darker Than Blue by Curtis Mayfield
