Zulaikha Patel (born 2003) is a South African anti-racism activist. She became a symbol of the fight against Pretoria Girls High School's policy regarding black girls' hair in 2016, at the age of 13. She and her classmates held a demonstration that led to not only a change in school policy, but also an inquiry into allegations of racism at the school. She is quoted as saying: “Asking me to change my hair is like asking me to erase my blackness.”

  • Zulaika Patel o Zulaikha Patel (Sudáfrica, 2003) es una adolescente sudafricana activista contra el racismo especialmente conocida cuando a los 13 años, en junio de 2016 inició una protesta contra un colegio de secundaria en Pretoria en el que se obligaba a las alumnas negras a alisarse el pelo. Su imagen enfrentada a los guardias de seguridad contratados por la escuela para reprimir una manifestación silenciosa del alumnado negro, se hizo viral en las redes sociales provocando la solidaridad y la denuncia internacional sobre el caso. Finalmente el gobierno provincial suspendió la sección del código del colegio referida al peinado. Fue elegida por la BBC entre las 100 mujeres destacadas de 2016. (es)
