"Religion" in the News


This article is about a young girl, Khawlah, who was walking to school in Toronto this past month when a man came behind her with scissors and tried to pull off her hood and cut her hijab. Khawlah states she is now "actually really scared" to go to school because of this attack seemingly regarding her religion. Her family and community is very upset about this hurtful act and hope to catch the attacker who had acted very wrongly and inappropriately on her.
