Interesting article on Black people's hair that I found at wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Afro_textured_hair - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Afro_textured_hair

Just out of curiosity, why is nappy hair referred to as African 'American' when the majority of wooly haired people reside in sub-saharan Africa?
