Still, Muslim students continue to experience bullying, at twice the National average. This is verbal, physical like I experienced, and even online. It can lead to a low self esteem, struggling performance, and even self harm. — PolitiTweet.org

I was fortunate to have an incredible family and school administration, but I did not yet have CAIR. That was 25 years ago. Today, Alhamdulillah, I wear it proudly, and boldly. — PolitiTweet.org

For many years I told others that it was easy to wear a hijab to public school. It wasn’t. I was traumatized and coping by minimizing any retelling of the challenge. — PolitiTweet.org

The next year, at 11, I was sitting in class when some students pulled it off. I learned really fast what bullying, discrimination, and even school discipline all meant. — PolitiTweet.org

Three years later, at 10, I started to wear it everyday. It wasn’t religiously required yet, I was still young, but I wanted consistency. Wear it everyday or not at all. — PolitiTweet.org

I started experimenting with wearing hijab when I was just seven years old. We had come back from Hajj, my mom had started to wear it, and I wanted to be like her. https://t.co/8HejzYLTGz — PolitiTweet.org
