THE QUICKER YOU CAN GIVE THE POLICE THE INFORMATION THEY NEED, THE FASTER THEY WILL BE ABLE TO GET IT INTO THE SYSTEM AND ONTO THE AIRWAVES.
I want you to be prepared in the event that your child has disappeared.
I urge all parents and guardians to read and maintain a copy of this Quick Reference Guide
WHEN A CHILD GOES MISSING it alters the Universe. Especially the world within which he or she lives. Parents and guardians of a missing child MUST be able to provide information about their child that they may not be able to bring to mind. Filled with terror, it is beyond difficult to bring rational reasoning and memory to mind.
The police will need a detailed description of your child. They will need to know what he or she was wearing. (Start paying close attention to this each morning.) They will need to have a photo, physical description, and a great deal of other relevant and vital information.

NappyMuse is a global movement dedicated to you, your life, hopes, dreams and adventures. We love your hair, but we are more interested in you. Dream. Be everything you want to be, do everything you want to do. If you can dream it--you can have it, but God will exceed it.
Definition: NappyMuse the “Beautiful As iS Movement” that celebrates and supports the inspirational life experiences of the natural.
Vision: To inspire self-love and appreciation for the natural beauty in everyone by creating a forum of experts on natural beauty, holistic health and diet; to grant exposure to musicians, dancers, poets, independent artists and filmmakers, comedians and entertainers. To provide education of the past and present and most of all enrich and inspire the life of the natural.
Mission: To teach everyone to live above existence.
Keys: Love, understanding, acceptance and freedom.

Dawn Yerger presents the weekly "Nappy Diaries" segment on NappyMuse TV, which chronicles her natural hair journey and engages the audience through participatory hair challenges. She is also the creator and host of Nappturalite Radio, the radio show dedicated to the love of Black natural hair (http://bit.ly/nappturaliteradio). After transitioning from relaxed hair for six months and then doing the "big chop" in November 2009, she found herself in a whole new world of learning about and taking care of her natural hair. She decided to document her journey and share the information that she continues to find through Nappturalite Radio. Dawn is also a member of the eBraiding.net/eNaturals.net Advisory Board.
A natural hair youtube vlogger, Ria is a self described nappy advocate. By day, she currently pursues an M.A. in History and in her spare time "counsels" women who find themselves in the process of transitioning to natural hair. But she never separates her passions. Her thesis will track the connections between pro black attitudes as expressed through hair. Natural since 2003, Ria has had locs, twists, afros, puffs, braids, just about every style natural hair offers. She is the creator of : ToBeANaturalista.com & Youtube.com/sumkindawndrful
Because of her research interests and commitment to African Am literary scholarship, she serves as thear-in-residence of an academic think tank group called Black Thought Collective at Purdue University's Black Cultural Center. BTC is a "dialogue-centered and service-learning group" that engages in intellectual debate(s) beyond the traditional classroom experience "through an Afrocentric perspective." BTC is comprised of graduate and undergraduate students who share a dire concern of learning all aspects of people from the African Diaspora.
Feel free to check out some of her writing in a personal blog called A Black Woman's Disguise as well as her other blog Rock the Spoken Word which is dedicated to known and unknown spoken word artists and writer's of poetry.
Casarae Gibson's research interests include African American literature that discusses issues of racial uprisings and/or racial discrimination in major urban cities (Harlem, Los-Angeles, and Philadelphia). Casarae examines how literature plays a role in discussing past and present issues of race riots, racial uprisings, and how they still affect the socio-ecnomic statuses of American minorities specifically African-Americans.

Most of her life was spent fighting with stiff and broken hair, once even accidentally dissolving it all with a relaxer. Through nearly thirty years of trial, error, and research, she figured out what her hair had desperately needed all along. Finally understood, her natural curls now reach to her hips. One of her big goals is to see that no one else with hair like hers ever has to go through with theirs what she did with hers, so she created TightlyCurly.com and wrote Curly Like Me: How to Grow Your Hair Healthy, Long, and Strong.
Teri has been writing and illustrating since childhood. While painting and putting together freelance books after high school, she worked various odd jobs, including a factory in Kentucky. Years later, she created freelance botanical illustrations while earning a bachelor of science in botany from the University of California, Santa Cruz.

Teri LaFlesh came by her super-curly hair being half-black and half-white. She grew up both as a mulatto in Kentucky (it was stamped on her school transcripts) and as a black kid in an all-white family in California. She even spent some months in childhood living among the Moonies with her mom. Teri experienced how very curly hair is dealt with in both her black and white households. Like many people of mixed-African heritage, she has curls of various sizes, ranging from waves to coils narrower than the width of a pencil.
