About
This head is wrapped in more than just cloth,
this body is covered in more than just clothes
and I am more than what you think you see in me.
I wear humility on my back,
gratitude around my neck,
and respect across my chest
because modesty is my chosen style of dress.
I am a Muslim woman
And I am not oppressed.
My beauty is not measured by the length of my legs,
or the width of my hips,
Nor is my worth contained in curves of my frame
Or the style of my hair.
Who I am extends beyond my body proportions and the clothes that I wear.
I am a Muslim woman
Born of Muslim women
And my story is theirs.
We are more than what your headlines declare.
We have minds.
We have opini
