By #MuslimGirlProbs is our weekly link roundup of headlines, stories, events, and situations that make us want to rip our hijabs off.
Another set of crazy headlines. Enjoy.
Week of 5/18/15:
- Luna Park booted a Muslim woman and called her a “terrorist b—-” when she asked to not be seated next to a man on a ride. The company claims to have a commitment to accommodating guests of all religious beliefs, but they failed miserably. Plus, it was a very simple request – why you gotta be so rude? [DNA Info]
- Islamic “Hate Preacher” is covered by freedom of speech. WHAT’S NEW IN LIFE? German court claims a racist comedian can just be called a “hate preacher.” Lol, ok. [Breitbart]
- AP photographer shoots images under a full niqab to showcase how the world looks from behind a Muslim woman’s veil. And he think it’s so revolutionary. Yet again, we have men trying to “convey” the experiences of women. If you don’t observe the niqab, then sit down and stop belittling the narratives and experiences of the women who do. Taking pictures under a cloth for a day doesn’t convey anything. [The Times of Israel]
