I knew, but didn’t fully appreciate until reading this @NYTmag piece by @lindavillarosa about the dangers of hair relaxers, how my parents truly protected my health and well-being! They encouraged my sister and me to love our natural hair despite anti-Black messaging everywhere.

Reggie Jackson refused to allow it. We cannot move on as so many want until we tell the truth and until we make repair.

Chilling stories of enduring racism from the legendary Reggie Jackson in response to @AROD's question about returning to Rickwood Field. "I wouldn't wish it on anybody." Tells how people threatened to burn down the apartment he was staying at. @FOX4 @MLBONFOX
