<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Chile, the helmet of salvation is getting a lot of press this week and celebrities are coming out the woodwork to put in their two cents. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">After a video of a few Black women wearing bonnets at an airport went viral a little more than a week ago, a debate erupted online about whether or not women should wear bonnets and head scarves in public.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The fact that everyone feels they can police what Black women wear is beyond me, but that didn’t stop several famous peeps from chiming in.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It wasn’t too long before aunty <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/monique-speaks-on-representing-yourself-with-pride-after-seeing-women-wear-bonnets-head-scarves-in-the-airport/">Mo’Nique popped up</a> with a whole video over the weekend, speaking to her followers about where she sides on the issue.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“So when we got to the airport yesterday, I was like ‘okay baby let’s go get them in Jackson, M,’ and as we began to walk through the airport, I saw so many, actually too many to count, and too many for me to tap. But I saw so many of our young sisters in head bonnets, scarves, slippers, pajamas, blankets wrapped around them, and this is how they’re showing up to the airport.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She continued to explain that the airport is not the only place where she has seen women dressed like that.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“The question that I have for you sweet babies, when did we lose pride in representing ourselves?” Mo’Nique asked.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She added, “I’m not saying you don’t have pride but the representation you’re showing, someone would have to ask you to know that you had it.”</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tokyo Vanity apparently had enough and decided to take up for the bonnet-wearers Monday, explaining that people should really just mind their business. Tok also pointed out the irony in how Mo’Nique was dressed when she addressed the issue.</span></p>
