my grandmother

May god bless her, she told us how when Reza Shah forbode hedjab, she felt so naked walking in the street.  She cried so many years later that Reza Khan's thugs would grab women and violently pull the scarf off their heads and how humiliated and violated she felt.  She was an educated woman, a beacon of light in my life who taught me to respect women. Now was this violence any different from the humiliating forced Hedjab some years later?
