I’m Trinidadian. There is nothing special about dreadlocks that represent the culture there. The Rastafarian movement originated in Jamaica. I doubt the student wearing the dreads is a Rasta. It was simply his choice of hairstyle which he is entitled to make. The school seemed to change the rules for no reason. I know this detail makes no difference in the school’s decision to suspend the student for his hairstyle. But I felt like being one of those people today. Sorry.
