Do Muslim women in Hijab face prejudice and discrimination?
Sometimes. This can range from governmental prejudice like that found in France, where the Hijab is banned in public schools to discrimination in employment, as has often happened in the United States. However, in America, laws protecting freedom of religion and expression have been successfully used to challenge prejudice and discrimination against Hijab. Educating others about Hijab is also key in dispelling misunderstandings about Islamic dress.
