About this listen

Black women's hair is a topic that has been at the centre of contemporary conversation for some time. This informative book explores the rich cultural history of Black women's Afros weaving in anecdotal tales from Black women along the way.

Exploring the ways in which Black women's natural hair is often politicised and judged, A Quick Ting on the Black Girl Afro chronicles the ways in which the styling of Black women's hair has influenced popular culture and intersected with Black expression.

Complete with intimate interviews and real-life stories about natural hair journeys and the hunt for hair products, A Quick Ting on the Black Girl Afro is a powerful exploration into the Black woman's Afro ― celebrating the versatility and diversity of Black women's natural hair.

MashaAllah, I really enjoyed listening to this. It was a thoughtful and engaging blend of personal stories and insight into a reality that I, as a Black man, thought I understood - but nothing compares to hearing it authentically relayed by someone who’s actually lived it.

The book shines a light on the unique experiences Black women with afros navigate - from identity to perception, and everything in between.

It really made me reflect on how vital it is to build a positive connection with natural hair. Definitely a must-read for my daughter when she’s older iA - this book is a powerful foundation for young girls to grow up feeling confident, proud, and deeply informed about their hair.
