When My Mom Moved To The States, She Wore The Hijab. She Lived In Arkansas With Her Aunt And Uncle. Her

when my mom moved to the states, she wore the hijab. she lived in arkansas with her aunt and uncle. her uncle forced her to take it off because “it wasn’t american.” so she did. but when she got married and left arkansas she put it back on, and no one stopped her.

she’s one of the reasons I started wearing the hijab, and have stayed strong for nine years ✊🏼. I stand with my sisters who are going through a similar predicament and pray that things work out for them soon 💓💓

On June the 14th the constitutional court in Belgium stated that prohibition of wearing religious signs in an establishment of higher education does not constitute a violation of freedom of religion nor a violation of the right to human dignity which includes the right to education. This declaration meant that Hijab-wearing women don’t have the right to get higher education. Some will, unfortunately, give up on their dreams and some will be forced to remove the hijab to get an education. “I was in a school establishment where wearing a hijab was forbidden. Therefore, every morning, when I go to school, I had to take it off and put it in my bag. I had the feeling that I was enduring microaggressions from a system that was supposed to protect me”. #HijabisFightBack was a way to protest this discrimination. ✊🏽 The right to education should not be negotiable.

A gentle reminder to all that the first university the world ever saw was founded by a Muslim woman. Today, we have to beg to be able to wear a hijab and get an education at the same time — both of which are fundamental rights that our women are being stripped of.

The meeting is an absolute chore. It is obvious the team is ill-prepared. Seungwoo thinks he can use his time more efficiently than this especially when the presenters are just reading off their powerpoint presentations like they are now. He risks a glance at his new assistant all the way at the back of the conference room. The place is dimly lit to accommodate the projector but he can clearly make out the look on her face.

The girl is smirking to herself. She looks up from her phone to take a look at him but when she sees he is already facing her, she quickly bows her head down.

“That would be all, sir.”

All the lights suddenly turn on and Seungwoo finds himself in a room full of people expectantly staring at him for feedback. He slowly takes his eyes from the girl to turn back to the presenters, squinting at the remainder of their presentation.

Seungwoo resists the urge to sigh as he waves them all away. “Just e-mail everything to me and I’ll review it tonight. You should have your answer tomorrow morning.”

When nobody moves to leave, he stands up from his seat and tilts his head to the side in hopes that the girl will understand the signal. She crunches her eyebrows together a little, but in a split second, she understands and scrambles to gather her things straightaway.

Seungwoo grins to himself. She understands him well, apparently.

The walk from the conference room to the elevator is not long. So, he tries to walk as slow as possible so that the girl will have time to catch up to him. He hears her hurried footsteps behind him but he tries to make it seem he pays no mind. His other employees are staring, after all. They all stare every time he is in this floor. The girl takes quite a while but just as the elevator dings, she suddenly slams face first onto Seungwoo’s back.

The girl, eyes wide and lipstick slightly smeared, stands in complete silence behind him. Seungwoo realizes she must have smeared her lipstick on his white button down.

She murmurs an apology as he holds the elevator open for her. “Sorry, sir, I…uhh…I slipped on the floor.”

They both step into the elevator box and Seungwoo pushes a button. “It’s okay. No worries. Are you okay, though?”

“Yeah,” she lifts her eyes to meet his, “I’m okay, sir.”

Seungwoo chuckles. She is still so formal. When they get down to the parking lot, the girl stares at him in question but he chooses to play dumb and gets off the elevator box before her. That’s when she sees his back again.

“Oh shit, I got lipstick on your shirt!” she blurts out.

Seungwoo turns around to smirk at the girl, who has one hand over her mouth in surprise probably because she dropped the formality on her own, “I know, YN, that’s why we’re here in the parking lot. So, I can go change.”

He turns back and walks over to his car. The girl does not say anything back and follows suit but Seungwoo can see the confusion etched on her face.

“Get in,” he tells her just before he gets into the car himself.

Being left with no choice, she gets in with a sigh. Seungwoo starts the engine before proceeding to unbutton his shirt which earns him a mouthful from his assistant.

“What the hell are you doing?” she does not cover her eyes like Seungwoo has expected her to, but her gaze is frozen forward and she does not glance at him even once since he has started unbuttoning his shirt.

Seungwoo lets out a small laugh. “I’m changing my shirt. Not that I hate it, but don’t you think it would be weird to go out for lunch wearing a shirt smeared with my assistant’s lipstick?”

“Please don’t say it like that,” she hastily responds.

“Like what?” he asks as he reaches over to the backseat for his extra shirt. He feels her inch away a little bit and he cannot help but smile.

When she does not respond, he pushes her further. He puts the new shirt over him and starts to button it up. “What are you talking about, YN?”

Seungwoo watches her and if not for the lighting, he might have noticed the slight tinge of pink blossoming on her cheeks. “Nothing,” she says and then adds, “sir.”

He does not know whether it is her reaction or the fact that he has just been half-naked in front of the girl he has had a crush in since high school but Seungwoo loses his composure and laughs. He laughs long and hard while the girl next to him glares daggers at her boss.

“Come on,” Seungwoo says when he finally recovers, “Let’s go get something to eat.”

Summary: Seungwoo covers up corruption and you are an activist in your spare time.
