I always have my hair searched if I don’t have PreCheck boarding pass (when others book work trips for me). It’s demeaning, exhausting & a detriment to my professionalism if my hair gets messed up before work. @ProPublica is looking for stories like mine.

This person deleted this tweet but: It’s still a @TSA issue. Women of color TSA agents typically lightly pat my head. White women agents put their dirty gloved fingers into my hair, digging around ‘til they touch scalp. The difference in treatment IS a TSA issue along w/ the tech
I encourage folks to use the hashtags #TSAHairChecks to talk about hair checks on POCs specifically and #TSAHarassment to talk about your experiences with @TSA regarding disability, gender expression, race/ethnicity and religion.
