20-year-old tells how the trend of “being brown” changed her life. Schott experienced bullying in elementary school and at the beginning of high school.
“It's difficult for me to distinguish why I experience discrimination and why people don't like me because of my appearance,” she says. For black hijabis (Arabic: women with headscarves) in Germany, discrimination is part of everyday life. She talks about this in a TikTok video with a friend who is also a black hijabi.
