The Hijab
The Hijab is a covering that Muslim women wear to conceal their hair from the outside world, they only bare themselves to family and other Muslim women.
The Hijab is said to be an oppressive part of the Muslim faith, but contrary to popular belief most Muslim women actually enjoy and love wearing the Hijab and they embrace it, saying it is their right and their freedom as an American.
The Hijab has even been banned in France.

• Muslim American women are being forced to remove the Hijab and even some take it upon themselves to remove it.
• Some Muslims do it out of fear, others do it for social acceptance.
• Others do it out of Law, one that isn't present in the United States
