Modern Day Slavery
Completed my second day of work at Tenaganita. I am moved to log a bit of my experience. Please keep in mind this is from an 'American' view - which will be most of you. ;)
At 88* today and a 73% humidity, the actual degree is 101*! Ok, so, now imagine that you are a Muslim woman with 2 layers of head covering working outside in food stall, frying food! I cannot imagine it. I can't imagine it with just my hair - much less a head covering. I am meeting lovely people who are choosing to spend their time and life in the area of justice. Please take the time to watch this SHORT video on modern-day slavery. There will be a test! :)
Until next time-
Jen

ReplyDeletejenn I don't like what you said about Muslim Women becx it's their right to wear or take it off. also, I don't want your freedom oppppps or American freedom to tell me what should I do in my life????? I hope you respect people religion as you do in Missoula in front our faces...
thanks jenn and peace...
Muslim friend who thought you are a really friend but you aren't
I do apologize! That is not what I meant at all - what I meant is I don't know how they do it! I was soooo hot in just my clothes that I couldn't imagine having anything else on me. I apologize you feel this was offensive - by no means is that what I was trying to do. It was just a simple observation, but with no qualitative attached - but since you signed anonymous, I cannot responsd directly to you. I hope you accept this apology.
