Black people are even banned from wearing a durag on many places in the US, and itâs something that has become a symbol of black pride movements and is ingrained in African American culture as it literally dates all the way to Ethiopian kings and then African slaves. But yet this white man using it as a costume shamelessly is not a problem? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMonster20 9,575 Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Instead of attacking those that wear this type of stuff people should be more dedicated to the actual problem which is no longer making the people of the original culture who wear it penalized for it. However someone from another culture simply wearing it has no effect at all, although it is in poor taste obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PEZ 5,938 Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Is there a difference between wearing a durag and a bandana? Asking because I tie my hair up and back in a bandana when working in the heat and I don't want to get dragged for covering it Idk what the difference is except the tie in the back is shaped a lil different? âĄđ˛ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No human being can tell another human what they can or cannot wear. All styles are borrowed- thatâs how culture begins. Humans evolve and styles change. Get over it. From Wikipedia: While the contemporary English nomenclature for the object originated in the 1960s, the object itself is older. Do-rags were originally worn by Ethiopian kings, especially by Menelik II (1841â1921), and later worn by enslaved African American women and laborers in the 19th century. In the 1930s, during the Harlem Renaissance and Great Depression, the do-rag was used to maintain hairstyles. During the black pride movement of the 1960s and '70s, do-rags became a fashion statement among African American men. In the 1990s, do-rags were further popularized by rappers like Jay-Z, Nelly, and 50 Cent. The popularity of rappers such as A$AP Ferg and the waves hairstyle have re-stimulated the use of do-rags. But sure, letâs erase years and years of black history!
