Celebrate World Afro Day on September 15 by embracing your natural beauty and celebrating the diversity of the African diaspora! This special day was created in 2013 to honor the beauty and strength of people with afro-textured hair. It's a day to recognize the unique heritage, culture, style, and identity that comes with having an afro. Throughout history, people with afros have faced discrimination and oppression due to their hairstyle. World Afro Day is an opportunity to recognize these struggles while also celebrating our unique beauty and resilience.

World Afro Day also provides a platform to bring attention to issues such as gender equality, human rights abuses, poverty, access to healthcare, education, etc. - all issues that disproportionately affect women in many African countries.
