Eight-year-old Marian Scott was blocked from getting her school picture taken because of her red, braided extensions. So a photographer organized a special photo shoot so she could 'be herself.'
And this time, it was all on her terms.When Chicago photographer Jermaine Horton was tagged in a Facebook post featuring young Marian Scott's story, he wasted no time getting in touch with her parents to arrange a shoot tailor-made for her. "This is an 8-year-old girl who was singled out by her school," Horton said to CNN."I'm a father and I'm tired of seeing injustices like this happen. I wanted to go out there and help build this girl's confidence.
"She called us in tears," Marian's father, Doug Scott, told CNN."She wore the extensions to school before and they never told us anything, so it was surprising to us that this was the first time we were hearing it was a violation of the school's dress code."Ben Kriesch, principal of Paragon Charter Academy, where Marian went to school, told WILX that Marian's red extensions violated school policy.
