A hijab-wearing woman’s daily life is governed by family fear of attacks
Evidence
And I have to say the biggest impact that has been for my family because they very much are fearful for my safety. My husband on a daily basis sends me stories of women in hijab who have been attacked, whether it’s being thrown in front of a train, whether it’s having your face smashed in with a beer mug. And especially having two young children with me most of the time, he is very much scared for me and my safety. — Saher Selod, Forever Suspect_ Racialized…, 40
