NBC Nightly News features "I Love My Hair" video
Did anyone watch the NBC News at 5:30 PM (CST) tonight? Brian Williams just introduced the segment by saying a Sesame Street video has gone viral on YouTube. He explained that the head writer at Sesame Street has an adopted Ethiopian daughter who was admiring the long, shiny hair of other little girls and so he wrote the song, "I Love My Hair" as a way to boost her self esteem.
It was just a teeny segment...they played like the first line or so, but I was glad it made national news.

I didn't see it. But, I think that it is great to know the story behind it.

I was going to create a thread for this but I see I didn't need to. I just saw it on ABC evening news. It is great! I watched the complete video on YouTube. It shows the puppet in all types of natural hair styles. She goes on to say that she loves her hair because she can style it so many ways. I would put the link for it but I do not know how to do that. This sends a great message to children with natural hair. Love it!

There are also two other threads on Curly Nikki showing this video and a similar one.
