Read the excerpts from Does My Head Look Big in This? and Persepolis.

Excerpt from Does My Head Look Big in This?:

At Hidaya the hijab was part of the uniform. But I used to take it off as soon as I stepped outside the school gates because man oh man do you need guts to get on public transportation with it on. At the end of the school day the trains would be absolutely packed with schoolkids. I could keep wearing it if I hopped on with a group of Hidaya students because I wouldn't feel so exposed. But the problem was that I had to change trains to get home and there was no way I had the courage to go the distance alone with it on.

Excerpt from Persepolis:

A page from the graphic novel Persepolis. In 1980, children who had been going to co-ed, bilingual, nonreligious schools were sent to religious schools. The girls were separated from their friends and had to wear the hijab.
