In this lovely clip from Sesame Street, a self-loving puppet, in a song clearly geared toward little black girls, teaches kids to love their hair just as it is. It's a pretty fabulous message for young black girls, who are bombarded with messages, both subtle and overt, that tell them their natural hair texture is not desirable.
