ANAHEIM — Disneyland officials have reached an agreement with a Muslim college intern allowing her to wear a head covering while on the job, Muslim community leaders and Disney officials said Monday.

Officials with the Council on American-Islamic Relations say the scarf acts as an Islamic head covering, called a hijab, in accordance with her Muslim religion. Disney officials don’t call it a hijab — just a head scarf to accommodate an employees needs.

The woman, who was not identified by name, is the second Disney employee in recent weeks to complain that Disney did not allow her to wear the head scarf while working.

Time to boycott Disney. (But I already was).

Will a burqua be next?

[snarkbait]

All the christian employees should start wearing big honkin’ CROSSES!

[PGR88]

I avoid the “Ministry of Culture” whenever possible. No Disneyland, no Disney Channel.

Disney officials don’t call it a hijab

They should call it what I do...a sell out.

[South40]

And definitely no ABC.

[Not A Snowbird]

I don’t see what the fuss is about, unless Disney also prohibits the wearing of crosses or crucifixes.

Do they?

[Frantzie]

Keep watching ABC NEws, the Disnsey Channel or going to their parks sheeple. I cancelled TV a year ago because ALL TV support Islam because the Saudis are shareholders in Disney/ABC, News Corp/Fox, TW/CNN, GE/NBC.

What need? There is no religious requirement for it.

No surprise.

Muslim Mickey Mouse Preaches Hatred To Kids

I remember growing up as a kid and watching Saturday morning cartoons. It was a fantastic part of my childhood that brings back many fond memories. Whether it was the Smurfs, Super Friends, Tom & Jerry, Spider-Man, Dungeons & Dragons, or even the Care Bears, the premise was simple… provide children with an innocent form of entertainment and carry them to far off lands for a 30-minute adventure. Whether or not you even learned anything was irrelevant, this was all about fun! But that was America. I’m not sure what cartoons our European neighbors watched but I would assume it was a similar experience.

Think this is bad?

 

Have you head what they've done to Minnie Mouse????

[Armaggedon]

So it begins.

[colorado tanker]

OK. What are they gonna say when a Muslim guy demands to wear a beard???

[Dallas59]

Can’t do that. That would be RACISM!

[paul51]

[longtermmemmory]

which one?

remember Disney (at their expense) was making one up that matched the costume.

Also keep in mind this is Disney LAND. As in, this is unionista California.

This is not the whole story.
