Letter to the Editor: This is the 21st century, not the Dark Ages
Editor,
People never cease to amaze me. When will we realize we are all created different by design. If we weren’t we’d be a world of clones.
I said that to say this:
My daughter was married to a man from Morocco. They have a 7 year old daughter. Saturday, Aug. 18th was the end of Ramadan, a month long fast broken at sundown each day. On the last day, there is a celebration very similar to our Christmas, my daughter was taking my granddaughter to see her father on Friday, Aug. 17th. Out of respect to him and his beliefs, she chose to “cover,” a custom among the women, where the head is completely covered and no hair is showing. My granddaughter as well was “covered.”
