As a Muslim woman in America, Ayesha Haq has been told many different narratives about her and her identity. In a time and culture that is often so quick to put false labels on someone based on appearance, gender, religion, or any other number of factors, how can we cultivate an environment in which individuals feel heard and represented?
Ayesha Haq is a J.D candidate at the UC College of Law. Currently, she is involved with the Human Rights Quarterly and Asian Pacific American Law Students’ Association. Ayesha’s goal is to create an American society where people from different cultures, backgrounds, and ethnicities are celebrated for their unique differences.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

I thought this was great. I have mutual friends who wear what she wears and they aren't Muslim. The clothing that people wear can give us an idea of who or where they might be from but it doesn't actually define them. I loved the ending.. let's get to know one another". That's what we need to do and stop assuming.

Kuddos to you Ayesha for having the courage and the bravery for revealing a much truer version of the Muslim women in contrast to existing narratives. I pray that your voice be heard and understood and that it becomes an antidote to Islamophobia.

I don't mean to hurt or shun anyone's beliefs and perspective. These are just my thoughts.

I have recently read The Wind in My Hair: My Fight for Freedom in Modern Iran audiobook, by Masih Alinejad so I can not really believe what you are saying. Women should have the freedom to wear whatever they want to.

Yeah idk all I think is girls should be able to wear shorts sleeveless shirts whatever, drive cars, show their face, leave the house w/o mens permission etc w/o having to worry about being stoned or Sharia Law.

I have been trying to educate myself about oppression. I am open to changing my current opinion, but based on all the variety of different educational resources available, oppression seems to be everywhere and in every thing. It is the bias of your personal opinion. Amazingly, it can be real and imaginery at the same time.

Covering your head not so bad, covering your expression is very very bad.

Hi, to anybody who reads this. This is a good example of somebody who is in denial about the oppression of women and how religion plays a part, there is no misinterpretation about that scripture and she tries to justify it by saying men are "responsible" for women. Excuse me? Unless if you're referring to the men who are responsible for cutting women's heads off for supposedly "dishonoring" their husbands or fathers due to their Islamic beliefs then what you're saying is absolutely crazy not to mention sexist, this type of thinking is what keeps women bound! Clearly she let her father affect her better judgement, that's all goodbye 👋

Why is it that only 6% of Muslim women have a post secondary education while 42% of American women do?
