Beirut wa Nasuha by Haibat Balaa // “Haibat Balaa weaves narratives of Beirut and its people in her collages. She assembles fragments gathered from popular sources, such as magazines, stamps and bills to chart the fabric of the city by literally drawing on the fabric of clothing and furniture from its popular iconographies. From the lustrous and reflective surfaces of the haute bourgeoisie’s houses to the floral and polychromatic patterns of peasants, refugees and beggars, Bawab employs textiles as a signifier of social status.” https://ift.tt/2NdmECR

Cheers to diversity & safe spaces where respect and solidarity are the key values. ✌🏽 Saudi ballet dancer by @abdollah85 http://bit.ly/2sob6U4

“Reda tells the story of Muslim women and the 8 most common hijab styles. While the turban is often labelled as "heathen" and "pointless", women in burqas get judged for not covering their ankles, their walk and how they talk. As a dedicated hijabi I ask myself, if I am wearing it for myself or the critics, to match their expectations of a "real" hijabi. It is my decision if and how I am wearing my headscarf. It is none of your business, how I express self love to myself. Who am I wearing it for when it is not for myself?” by @ischraa http://bit.ly/2AKPsy3
