Fear of violence pressures hijab-wearing women to change their dress, even from protective family.

Evidence

Muslim women who wear the hijab are under a lot of pressure to change or control their dress because of fear of violence from strangers and pressure from family members and loved ones who want to protect them. The interviews I conducted confirm Lori Peek’s (2012) findings that refusing to take off the hijab can create stress for Muslim women with their family members. — Saher Selod, Forever Suspect_ Racialized…, 368

• XREF: Anchors the reader’s question on how surveillance lands on women — the family-as-extension-of-surveillance mechanism connects to Beydoun’s work on the carceral state.
• QUESTION: Family pressure to change dress is a form of internalized surveillance — worth exploring whether Selod theorizes this as a gendered extension of state surveillance.
