Wash Day
Three young Black women discuss the public perception of their Blackness in its relation to their personal journeys in cultivating a strong sense of self.
Overview
The act of washing one’s hair and body serves as the touchstone for Wash Day—an intimate exploration into how private, domestic acts such as washing your hair or putting on makeup become a significant re-acquaintance with the body, before and after navigating the politics of one’s outwardly appearance.
