Explore the misconceptions surrounding the hijab in this thought-provoking TEDx talk by Maliha Jabeen Khan. Challenge stereotypical opinions formed about women wearing hijabs within the first 7 seconds of meeting them. Gain insights into the true essence of the hijab and learn about the unjust hijab bans worldwide. Discover the importance of critically consuming media to develop a deeper understanding of this religious practice. Go "Beyond the Fabric" to recognize that a hijab is more than just a piece of cloth and that Muslim women are more than what they wear. Listen to Maliha, a third-year pre-med student at the University of Regina, share her perspective as an accomplished academic and community volunteer. This independently organized TEDx event follows the TED conference format, offering a platform for local voices to share impactful ideas.
