Theories & Thoughts: Episode 54- I Am Not My Hair

A couple of weeks ago Tashara Parker went viral because the African American news anchor wore a fro-bun on television, a mohawk to be exact.  Many in our culture celebrated her,  while many thought the hairstyle was unprofessional.

This week the ladies of Theories and Thoughts Podcast, @ladi.ceo  and @fancyswagher discuss the topic, I am not my hair with Ms. Parker. They will discuss the “professionalism” of natural hair. Who says what’s professional or not? 

Tashara Parker is an anchor and reporter at WFAA News 8 in Dallas, Texas covering traffic, breaking news, and inspirational stories. Featured as one of WFAA’s preeminent voices, the Daybreak anchor brings experience, vibrancy, and authenticity — capturing the attention of DFW viewers in an engaging and informative way, all the while creating loyalty.

Coined as a “community-focused storyteller”, Tashara is the go-to source for all things “community”, as she blends her passion for underserved people and organizations with an unwavering spirit of empathy. As one of Dallas’s influential voices, Tashara utilizes her platform to volunteer hundreds of hours to many organizations, including the Boys and Girls Clubs of America and her sorority, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Incorporated. 

With a dedicated following both on and off the air, the journalist is described by viewers as “someone who truly cares about people and this community.” And with this mantra lighting her path, Tashara continues to carve her slate within the industry — bringing both DFW and the best in community storytelling to the forefront.
