Sen. Cory Booker (N) officially unveiled federal legislation this week that would ban discrimination based on black hair textures and hair styles.
The legislation bans discrimination based on hair that is commonly associated with a specific race or national origin, according to a Thursday statement.
"Discrimination against black hair is discrimination against black people," Booker said in the Thursday statement. "This is a violation of our civil rights, and it happens every day for black people across the country."
