Hey. I absolutely don’t believe there was anything intended by this, and was likely an innocent mistake. I just spotted it and thought it was worth raising.
I reiterate again that what you’re doing in terms of accessibility is epic, so keep up the great work!
Thank you for being open to feedback.
I have no idea. I don’t know what it is. The point I made is still valid though. I don’t think it adds anything, and it does have concerning implications.

From a young age, black kids are told their natural hair is unkempt, and often by white teachers. The view of what is neat hair, and isn’t neat hair is very subjective. This constant unconscious, and sometimes conscious bias is not helpful. It’s often used as disguised form of discrimination.
I’m not saying this is the case with the original poster and think it was a genuine mistake, but it’s something we probably need to move away from.
I appreciate the work you’re doing to aid in accessibility. I’m not sure using “unkempt hair” is quite right. I would have thought this is natural afro hair. I don’t think the hair description adds to the transcription so is probably better to remove.
Manjaro. I’ve never known a distro break as much as this.
I generally don’t like to judge distro’s, because they’ve all got pros and cons. With Manjaro, the pros column is pretty empty :).
