Zaina is quiet at breakfast
and as she wraps her scarf
around her head, I ask,
"Why do you wear it
if you're scared?
Does...is someone
forcing you?"
The mental picture
of Aunt Eevie forcing Zaina
to do anything is bizarre but I ask
just to be sure.
Zaina looks at me then and smiles,
soft and simple.
"No, I wear it because
it's who I am.
And I don't want to be forced
to hide that."
a.n.
i just realized that zaina is one of the first muslims i've encountered in cpns.
huh.
i've also never stumbled across an autistic character or a black character.
that needs to change, i think.
