This Muslim Blogger Created An Inclusive Hijab Line For All Skin Tones.

Habiba Da Silva said: “I wanted to break the barrier of having too many companies who just used lighter skin models.” 22-year-old Birmingham designer has developed a new hijab fashion line called “Skin” that celebrates the diversity of all races.

“I wanted to do something where everybody was [included] and I wanted to showcase different people together. I wanted to break the barrier of having too many companies who just used lighter-skin models.”

Her collection aims to be inclusive of all races and all skin tones.

Police shot and killed an emotionally disturbed woman inside an apartment building in the Bronx Tuesday night. 

According to the police, they responded to call of an emotionally disturbed woman acting erratically. When they got there, they found the old Black woman alone in a bedroom with a pair of scissors. The officer asked 66-year-old Deborah Danner to put the scissors down, but she grabbed a baseball bat instead. That’s when he shot her twice. The woman was struck twice in the torso.

The sergeant, who’s been with the department eight years, didn’t use the stun gun, he preferred to shoot the old lady down.

Even State Senator Ruben Diaz says the shooting was indefensible. “To me, it is very difficult to understand how a woman who is [66] years old and has emotional problems should have to die like this, especially if there are four or five police officers in the room with her.”

They didn’t reveal the name of the officer but the investigation has been opened into the shooting, and it will seek to determine why the sergeant did not use the Taser he had in his possession.

Look at the twitter for Deborah Danner makes you wonder. NYPD shot this woman yesterday.

Another soul was STOLEN by the law enforcement. This is an outrage!  

My condolences to family. Peace and Power, Deborah Danner.
