Dope Labs

Tenderheaded: Hair, History, and Healing with Michaela Angela Davis - Lab115

26 Oct 2025

Description

Titi and Zakiya sit down with writer and image activist Michaela Angela Davis to talk about her book Tenderheaded and the tangled relationship between hair, colorism, and identity. From childhood memories to the legacy of magazines like Vibe and Essence, Michaela unpacks how beauty standards and media have shaped generations of Black women—and how healing begins when we tell our own stories. Dope Labs is where science meets pop culture. Because science is in everything and it’s for everybody.
