Deplorable Backlash/Stanford Proud - BigEasyCard - 09-12-2016
Just saw this article in Washington Post about reaction to a Stanford football promo photo which included a current undergraduate wearing her hijab.

Very proud of the way she handled the situation.
Geaux Cardinal!

I can't read the article because I've reached my WaPo limit for the month, but just based on the URL I can tell what it was about. I noticed that when the ad kept coming up on my Facebook feed, and the vitriol was just ridiculous. My favorite was the one guy complaining about it (her being Muslim) being shoved down his threat, but clicking on his profile he was a street preacher in Oakland; but, you know, it's her shoving something down his throat by a clothing choice and existing and all.
