(Breitbart) Six non-Muslim German girls volunteered for a “discrimination experiment” at their school to test whether they felt discriminated against for wearing an Islamic headscarf.
The experiment last week saw the volunteers don the hijab as part of an assignment by their teacher at the Geschwister-Scholl comprehensive school in the town of Lünen in North Rhine-Westphalia, German broadcaster WDR reports.
The purpose of the experiment, according to teacher Katrin Riekermann, was to have the girls walk around the town centre to see if they felt discriminated against while wearing a headscarf. The children found locals did not treat them differently, with the German broadcaster reporting that for Lünen residents, women in headscarves [are] an “everyday” sight.
