Danielle Ward Mason, Partner at Singleton Schreiber, was recently featured in Black Enterprise's article, "NAACP Lawsuit Demands Justice for Black Women Exposed to Harmful Hair Relaxers".
The article covers Singleton Schreiber & the NAACP lawsuit against major beauty corporations, who allege that these companies aggressively marketed, profited, and pushed a Eurocentric standard to apply pressure to Black women and other women of color in their purchase of risky chemical hair relaxers (also known as "perms"). These products have been linked to several health issues, including uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, uterine fibroids, and procedures such as a hysterectomy, myomectomy, or endometrial ablation.
"By holding these companies accountable, we're sending a strong message that corporations profiting at the expense of women's health will face justice," Ms. Ward Mason said.
