France’s Hijab Ban and the 2024 Olympics
Did you know that France, host country of the 2024 Olympics, is the only country in Europe with bans on religious headwear?
Hijab bans in sports are human rights violations and a direct attack on the rights and identities of Muslim women. By banning the hijab for French athletes, French officials are excluding talented athletes and sending a message that they are not welcome. Is policing what women wear what #GenderEqualOlympics looks like?
I stand in solidarity with Muslim women athletes and so should you. Everyone deserves the chance to shine, regardless of their faith! #RespectHerGame hashtag#HijabBan #Paris2024
