Pretoria High School girls protesting over a racist hair policy. The Cut

Pretoria High School
A section of Black Pretoria High School girls in South Africa caused a storm in their school when they protested alleged racism and abuse by white teachers.

The students protested against a code of conduct introduced by their school management proscribing Afro hairstyles, which the black girls say discriminates against them.
