Headscarves movement means well but it is 'cheap tokenism'


KAI SCHWOERER/GETTY IMAGES Muslim women don't wear a hijab as a costume - neither should you, even if it comes from a place of love. It is a mockery and doesn't shine light on the violence, vitriol and abuse Muslim women go through on a daily basis. KIRK HARGREAVES/CCC Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern visiting a Christchurch mosque. This also stinks of white saviour mentality, where Muslim women need to be rescued by (largely) white folk. Please do not support something as stupid as this and next time, hear the voices of young Muslim women, feminist Muslim women, rainbow Muslim people, young Muslim men, disabled Muslim people.
