About the event
Fatima Khan Mohammed was born in Ghazni, Afghanistan.
Moving to Nelson was one of the most challenging steps of her life.
Feeling a lack of safety in other ways, her hijab became her refuge. Wearing it
she felt at home. Come and hear more of Fatima’s story and be part of this cultural exchange, how to wear a hijab and what it represents. We will also go on a walk so you can experience how people react to this 3000 BC hair veiling.
Suggested Donation $5-20 (includes cardamom tea)
