I don't know much about Zanzibar, but what is the Zanzibar Govt. going to do if Black people from Europe, the US, and other places want to visit Zanzibar and spend money there? Kick them out or lock them up?

Neither.

The law applies to locals not to visitors.

This isn't much different to me from Muslim rulers demanding that women cover their heads or faces, assuming that they are demonstrating some kind of looseness/lack of morals, etc.

That would be because they are mohammedans.

Cultural inappropriation.

Countries can make any laws they like; that doesn’t mean they’re right or good.

They’re not going to stop drug or ‘rainbow’ cultures from getting into their country by inhibiiting hairstyles, for goodness’ sake. And they’re going to cause a whole lot of trouble to innocent people with this. The poorest old peasant there could tell them these things.

Next, they’ll have ‘State Approved’ hairstyles, like North Korea:

You would be surprised at what can be stopped by smacking the person who tried to take your dinner roll.

Will this work? Maybe.

But since mohammedans are cool with the idea that you can make a man into a women by chopping off body parts, probably not.

I think it all gets kind of 'iffy' when money is involved - on both sides.
