Venture even a short way to the eastern or western parts of the city, or across the waterfront called the IJ, into Amsterdam North, and you were likely to find yourself in humdrum working-class districts or areas colonized by recent immigrants: neighborhoods of women wearing headscarves, of drab social housing units clustered around proletariat playgrounds.

Yet some 2100 days from Mr Trump's presidential inauguration, Lexington found himself in a garden in the heart of the massively fortified headquarters, watching giggling girl scouts weaving bracelets and playing a giant version of snakes and ladders, demurely hopping around in long-sleeved uniform tunics and trousers, their scout-badged baseball caps wedged on top of pale blue headscarves.

According to the LA Times, the protesters included young Muslim women in headscarves, members of the Black Lives Matter movement, and members of the Fearless Undocumented Alliance, which advocates for the rights of unauthorized immigrants in the US. In other words, all representatives of what authoritarians would (probably subconsciously) consider to be threatening out-groups and the forces of frightening social change.

The students and bikers and indigenous Maori who performed hakas to honor the victims; the police officers and TV news presenters who donned headscarves in solidarity with their Muslim neighbors; and the thousands of other New Zealanders who showed up for Friday prayers at mosques across the country sent a clear message: The Muslims in our community are not invaders.

The why-bother-who-cares attitude toward Muslim women who wear headscarves was also visible in a recent case in which a Muslim woman named Fifi Youssef sued Associated Press photographer Mark Lennihan for using her likeness for the purpose of trade, after he took a picture of her at a Starbucks and put it up for sale on the AP website.

From 218 to 193, more than 219,2160 crosses were removed from churches in one Chinese province with close ties to Mr. Xi. At the same time, the government has stepped up measures against what it sees as excessive public displays of the Islamic faith, such as men wearing long beards or women wearing headscarves, as well as shops and restaurants that do not sell pork products, tobacco or alcohol.

Though France has had a long history of discomfort with clothing that demonstrates any religious identity— banning headscarves in public schools for both teachers and students, forbidding public servants from wearing the same, and banning the niqab (a full-face veil showing only the eyes) entirely in public — the garment has remained a lightning rod for the basic argument about what freedom means when applied to fashion in liberal society.

Mr George was concerned with what he saw as threats to all kinds of religious practice in Europe: restrictions on the ritual slaughter of animals, as prescribed by Islam and Judaism, moves (albeit only incipient) to stop the circumcision of baby boys, and limits on religious garb: for example, the French prohibition of headscarves and other conspicuous religious symbols in schools, and a similar ban (targeting either the hijab or all religious clothing) in several parts of Germany.

To his supporters, though, Erdoğan was a defender of their values dedicated to modernizing and opening up the Turkish economy, making the Turkish government more effective and less corrupt, and giving Turkey a place in the EU. In a move dear to its base, Erdoğan's party also expanded civil liberties for observant Muslims, particularly for women who, under laws intended to uphold a strict interpretation of secularism, were previously banned from wearing headscarves in schools, at universities, or on other state property.

I could not bear to be seen as a tourist, to be spoken to in English as soon as my poor Farsi was made clear, to be caught trying to take pictures on the street or looking with too much wonderment at the street sellers hawking wares on the sidewalk, the wide-eyed cats that prowl every corner of the streets, the beautifully arranged displays of fruits and nuts in stands by the bazaar, the loud chaos of honking cars in a traffic circle, the murals painted on the open sides of apartment buildings, the stream of sellers in the metro walking across the cars carrying heavy loads of socks, jewelry, makeup, bras, shirts, pajamas, underwear, lavashak, fresh olives, powdered saffron, window cleaners, hair extensions, toys, books, notebooks, pens, screwdrivers, flashlights, lanterns, sleeping bags, picnic blankets, regular blankets, towels, headphones, chargers, headscarves — anything you could possibly need — loudly and elegantly proclaiming the benefits and quality of their products.
