The scandal of white dreadlocks and the stuffiness of the 1950s

A particularly controversial symbol of the Cultural Revolt was the hairstyle of young men. They let their hair grow and provoked daily comments, sometimes friendly, sometimes aggressive. I myself wore my hair shoulder-length for years and since it is naturally curly, it grew into a kind of afro look, which I occasionally tried in vain to tame with oil.

Also, because I turn dark in the summer, my Afro-American acquaintances didn't believe I was white.
