One thing I quickly learned was that (while wearing the hijab), I was expected to claim a national identity. Further, saying that I was American did not go far enough in the explanations of who I was or how people classified me as a Hijabi woman.
Also, my friend Adrienne Duenas made a guest video blog for me. Adrienne was a colleague of mine at school and she decided to dress in hijab alongside me for the first week of the experiment. I thought it was important to get some of her ideas on video to share, and I think she did an amazing job!
Thanks for watching!
