An employee at a Chicken Express in Texas was sent home from work by her manager after she refused to take off her hijab.
Stefanae Coleman showed up to work wearing her hijab, which is a headscarf worn by many Muslim women, for the first time on Monday. Coleman only recently converted to Islam and was looking forward to wearing the religious covering, but instead, was left feeling "disrespected, baffled and highly upset," she told CNN.
Coleman called the incident "discrimination at its finest" and added that she"will not tolerate this at all."
