Itβs important to know that hijab is banned in schools in most of the european countries, such as france, belgium, switzerland etc. Millions of girls have to take their hijab off everyday in order to have access to education, and I am one of them. Please spread this as much as possible, it has become so normal here that I feel like a fool for even mentioning it, but Iβm pretty sure it goes against the human rights. This senseless law has been on since 2004 and pretends that all the students have to be βequalβ and it is prohibited to show that you belong to any religion, any religious sign must be set aside. However, most of us have to take our hijab off in schools where you can clearly see a christmas tree or a christian cross. βYeah but itβs not the sameβ, they say. Tell me about double standards. I pray for days when we donβt have to chose between religion and education.
This, but donβt read the notes. Itβs all just French people and/or Catholics going βIβm totally not racist or antisemitic, itβs just that I think that Xmas, a holiday celebrating the birth of Jesus, is secular, whereas a Muslim or Jew wearing a hijab or kippah is somehow forcing their religion on me by existing in public.β LOL
