This quote has been attributed to Valerie Jarrett many times. I’m not 100% sure it’s accurate, but here it is:
“I am Iranian by birth and of my Islamic Faith. I am also an American citizen and seek to help change America to be a more Islamic country. My faith guides me and I feel like it is going well in the transition of using freedom of religion in America against itself”
- Valerie Jarrett Stanford University 1977
If anyone needs wear a niqab, it’s ValJar.
Anyway, she’s not Iranian, she’s African American, born of parents who were expats living in Iran at the time.
