"Ban Hair Discrimination Gaining Momentum"
by Candice Norwood
What is the CROWN Act?
Final legislation can vary slightly from state to state, but most CROWN Act bills forbid discrimination against certain hairstyles and textures within workplaces and schools. The bill builds off existing state laws, which generally prohibit workplace or school discrimination based on religion, gender, sexual orientation, and race. But the CROWN Act expands the definition of "race" to include "traits historically associated with race, including, but not limited to, hair texture and protective hairstyles," like braids, locs, and twists. These and other styles known as "natural" looks do not involve processing to straighten the hair. Some bills also seek to end discrimination against adornments related to certain religious and indigenous communities.
Which is the central idea of this passage?
A. The CROWN Act is designed to provide legal protection from discrimination against hairstyles and textures tied to racial identity.
B. The CROWN Act is being introduced by African American politicians in mostly liberal states.
C. California was the first state to pass a CROWN Act, but several other states and cities soon followed.
