Robert Smalls: (They should make a movie about him)
Was born into slavery in Beaufort, S.C., but during and after the American Civil War, he became a ships pilot, sea captain, and politician. He freed himself, his crew and their families from slavery on May 13, 1862, when he led an uprising aboard a Confederate transport ship, the CSS Planter, in Charleston harbor, and sailed it north to freedom. His feat successfully helped persuade President Abraham Lincoln to accept African-American soldiers into the Union Army. As a politician, Smalls authored state legislation that gave South Carolina the first free and compulsory public school system in the United States.

MGS4 was awesome, and a great sendoff to Solid Snake. It was what MGS5 should have been as far as game design goes. MGS does not lend itself well to the sandbox approach that PP had.

I didn't mind the number of cutscenes or how long they were because it was trying to wrap up a storyline.

Having boundaries isnt weird.

Treating hair in this sacred/intimate way which people do is weird

In many African cultures hairstyles IS a big deal and in many cases signifies a lot about a person from their ethnicity, marital status to other social aspects about themselves.

For natural black hairstyles it takes a lot of time to wash/cowash, detangle, deep condition, style, part and twist the hair and sleep all night with a bonnet so it can stay in place. Then when she wakes up she has to take out all of the rubber bands, style it, blow dry it, etc. This process can take hours and if I did all that I'd be taken aback and get annoyed if people suddenly felt the urge to touch my hair too.

If you're curious, just ask. A lot of black people would be more than happy to explain our hair care routines but don't go in just feeling entitled to touch.

If a person asks to touch her hair and she's ok with it then I don't have a problem with it. It's when people just reflexively touch another person's hair is when it becomes an invasion of space. Curiosity is ok, but it's faux pas to just go touching any black person's hair without asking permission.

Unless it's my barber or the stylist that does my twists then I just don't want random people putting their hands in my hair period. I don't know where your hands have been, you could have been scratching your crotch idk.
