Hugh Masekela
I have to share this one: a coworker of mine just came back from interviewing Hugh Masekela, who will play in Accra this Saturday. When he came into the office, he was glowing, telling us how many amazing stories and insights are just swimming around in the old man's head. His favorite among them was Masekela's observation that globally, Black women spend over $100 billion a year on hair that does not belong to them.

I'm about to go get a haircut and wonder if there is a market would take my tangled long black hair.
quite possible, especially if you wash it and comb it first
