Woman Switches Up Her Friendly Act After Realizing Coworker Is Muslim: “Blatantly Islamophobic”

Spread the love

Coworkers don’t have to be friends and can disagree on things. But when their behavior is outright discriminatory, that’s crossing a red line. The Council on American Islamic Relations reports that in 2024, 15.4% of all complaints it received had to do with employment discrimination.

And the woman in this story would probably be part of that statistic. She faced some blatant Islamophobia at work, but refused to ignore it and just keep silent. When her coworker made a particularly nasty comment, the woman went straight to HR. And the company didn’t play about religious discrimination, either.
