Michael LinklaterGUEST
And as a kid, I was, you know, always taught to be proud of my culture and who I am and where I come from, and I was always taught to respect my hair.

Michael LinklaterGUEST
And the way it was taught to me as a kid and how you teach kids is that your hair is a sacred part of your body or it's a private part of your body.

Michael LinklaterGUEST
And so you're taught to respect it in that manner, where, you know, as kids, you teach them about private parts.

Michael LinklaterGUEST
That is a private part of the body, so you don't go up and touch someone's private parts, including their hair, because it is something that is very sacred to us.

Michael LinklaterGUEST
So when I grew up as a kid, I was being teased and bullied for having long hair and just wanting to be proud of who I was.

Shaun MajumderHOST
Now, Mike Linklater, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on the same question.
