The hijab is a type of religious covering worn by many Muslim women across the world. However, covered women face a great deal of social stigma in many countries. World Hijab Day, traditionally on February 1st, is an event meant to promote understanding and acceptance of these covered women. Have you ever wondered what it really means to wear a hijab? Or how to put one on? Or what you would look like covered? Join Daemen's American Association of University Women (AAUW) in the exploration of these questions at the Acknowledgment of World Hijab Day event.
