While I dont know how more moderate groups handle it, instruments other than the traditional hand-drum called the 'daf' is forbidden.

That rant was not very coherent, I had some bad family experiences that were fresh, I will delete it.

Im angry something regressive like the burka gets representation. People should be aware of how incredibly degrading the rhetoric that is used to justify women covering everything except their eyes is.

It's not about accepting the terrible thing that it represents. It's about accepting the person who wears it. That's a person under there. And yeah, you might be rightly mad for them that they have to wear it, but a lot of people take that emotion and use it to attack people who look different than them (it's a very human thing).

So, we show people who wear them because they want to so that people stop taking the anger at the thing and directing it at those wearing them. Or, at least, that's the theory.
