Catching up on people whose writing I admire as I explore Substack. I love your stories, Sofia. I am touched by your humanity. Your stories connect me to my humanness. I feel through your experiences. Such a gift.
Sofia, thank you for this wonderful piece. You make important points and I share your view that one of the most powerful images of the current uprising is the solidarity shown by women in hijab. I would appreciate gaining more insight into your choice, though. A subject you touch on but not in any great depth or detail ... your journey toward this choice could be so enlightening, especially for a western audience.
Sorry it took me so long to read this piece, and thank you for sharing it. I am always curious about the hijab, why it is worn, and what it signifies to the wearer, but am usually too unsure of the reply to actually ask the question.
Thanks for sharing this piece, Sofia. I am glad that you were able to give yourself the extra time you needed. As always your writing makes me both think and feel, thank you!
