Reply to comment by XxxMasterpiece in Colin Kaepernick says adoptive white parents perpetuated 'racism' at times while raising him by DrChefAstronaut
He is black. They are white. The comment she made was a slur directly related to him being black.
Not the same as a parent nagging their teen to wear clean clothes or wear deodorant or clean their room

Time-frame actually matters. Cornrows weren't a mainstream normal thing. Those that wore them typically were gang members or not on a successful life track.
Totally reasonable for his mom to say no to the hairstyle back then. Of course how she said no might not have been the best way but hey pain in the ass teens can bring the worse out of people.
