in 2019 after revealing she was finally permitted to wear her hair in braids after more than a decade on air. When I saw these beautiful young women, I cheered. Years before, my own hair drama played a role in my decision to transition from a career as a journalist appearing on cable news to my current career as a screenwriter, producer, and playwright.
I had never given much thought to my hair or makeup before 2007. That was the year that, thanks to my book about younger voters and the Obama campaign, I began appearing on television regularly. I soon went from someone who didn’t know how to put eyeliner on and usually wore my short hair pulled back to someone who could get my face camera ready in under 10 minutes. I also became someone who wore long, flowing hair extensions.
Then something unexpected happened. After my stylist removed my extensions, I decided to go without them for a bit; I wasn’t scheduled to be on TV for a few days anyway. But my TV agent called to inform me that one of the most powerful people in the news business wanted to meet with me the next morning. I didn’t have time to get the extensions put back in. I took the meeting.
That meeting was the beginning of the end of my News Barbie persona. I slowly eased out of wearing extensions on air. Not everyone approved. An older male friend once referred to my previous on-air look as more ladylike. Some network hairstylists gently nudged me to return to what they called my more glamorous look. But instead of looking back, I found my true calling.
I AM JESUS CHRIST! I CAME TO JUDGE THE WORLD. I WILL TELL YOU WHY YOU SHOULD NOT WORSHIP OTHER GODS, IMAGES AND FALSE PROPHETS. YOU ARE DISPUTING THOUSANDS OF YEARS WHICH HOLY HAS MORE POWER. BUT YOU MUST WORSHIP GOD ONLY THE CREATOR, BECAUSE EVERYTHING DEPENDS ON HIM.
