India.Arie Defends Blue Ivy's Crown

Ignorance is everywhere and although in most situations we shouldn't give it any attention in some instances something must be said. In this instance a petition was made for Jay Z and Beyonce's daughter Blue Ivy to have her hair combed in which soul singer India.Arie quickly came to the toddler defense.

"Why does anyone get the idea that its ok to make fun of a child?
 In public no less? This celebrity culture that hypnotizes people into thinking a person is LITERALLY NOT REAL because you see them on television is a spell the watcher HIM or HER SELF MUST BREAK. Blue Ivy — is a CHILD. And ANYONE thinking to themselves right now: “But she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth so what does it matter what I say” — Denying ANY PERSON their humanity, is a GAME we should ALL stop playing. WHY? Because it’s the kind of PERSON YOU WANT TO BE. Why NOT be a person who is loving towards human kind as a whole AND people as individuals?
 WHY NOT be a person protects the hearts of children? I think! all these people making negative comments would feel the SAME WAY if Blue Ivy’s hair were TOO DONE. If she had a relaxer, of Hair pulled too tight at the edges. Being gentle with a child’s hair is simply appropriate – this goes the same for ALL children. Come ya’ll Lol Were ARE better than this."

Some things should be off limits...especially children that do not belong to you. I don't tell you how to raise yours and you are NAUGHT going to tell me how to raise mine.
