The face of a veil


Boredom drove me to create this as (not very well...) as a continuation of my rant for Muslim (and veiled) women in contexts of prejudice and subjugation from different groups.

[Text: Islam frees me/ Muslims oppress me/ Islam honors me/ People ridicule me/ Islam submits me to Allah/ Culture submits me to men/ Islam values me through spirituality/ Modernity values me through materialism./ I am not your slave, your object, your relic, your symbol, or your pet./ My veil is my own./ I do not answer to you, your systems, or your worldviews./ I answer to Allah.]
