We were recently made aware of a grooming policy going into effect this month at the Baltimore Police Department. This policy is insensitive at best and racist at worst. We wanted to make you aware of it. Nappturality has put up a petition you can sign and listed email address of several Baltimore city officials that you can contact to make them aware of what you think of this new policy.
The policy prohibits the wearing of “extreme and fad hairstyles” by employees. This description includes:
- cornrows
- mohawks
- dreadlocks (not my word, but theirs)
- twists
- designs or sculptures made with the hair or cut into the hair
