More Than Just My Hijab - In Conversation with Senator Fatima Payman
In this episode, we had the wonderful opportunity to speak with Senator Fatima Payman.
Senator Fatima Payman is the first hijab-wearing Muslim woman in the federal Australian Parliament. Elected to the Senate for Western Australia, in 2022, Senator Payman originally migrated from Afghanistan to Australia in 1999, and since then has been serving the Australian community in various capacities and leadership positions. As a Muslim woman, she exemplifies her faith in many aspects, inspiring hope, and leading the way for a more accepting, and tolerant society.
Learn more about her story and how she is #ChangingTheNarrative, as we discuss aspects of Islamophobia, social justice, and why she is more than just her 'hijab'.
