Episode Synopsis "Layers NOT In Media: A Look at Hijab"

This episode delves into the complexities of wearing hijab and the various experiences that come with being visibly Muslim in a modern day Western society. I have only ever seen the mainstream media use the hijab as a prop to build this illusion of inclusivity, but no one has ever truly looked into the emotional experience that defines wearing hijab from a female Muslim perspective in a way that resonates with me or any other hijabi that I know. This episode is really just trying to fix that in some small way.
