I saw the news today- oh boy.
More anti Islamic sentiments for me when I pick up the kids.
More eyes trying to see through my scarf, asking "do you support Qatada".
Although no one will ask me out loud. Because then I will have the chance to put forward my account.
My account of peace, of respecting all, my anti terrorism beliefs, my belief in fairness. That we ALL have a role to play.
My equal rights for women, educational achievement for girls. All the things the media would rather you not associate with me.
Because it's easier to believe the worst of me, not the best I can be.
I'm just putting it out there. Thank you for reading xx
