In September of 1968, middle schooler Rita Pettis runs into her neighbor's niece rocking an afro, the first she's ever seen. When encouraged to try the new hair-do, she reports to school only to find herself suspended for wearing her natural hair.
My Own Hair was directed by Lauren Anderson.
My Own Hair runs for 11min, and was released in 2024.
