2:05Now PlayingA group of students from the School of Visual Arts last week hosted what they called a "hijab wrap challenge" in one of New York City's most popular parks, Union Square.
The point of the challenge, according to one student Karina, was to help New Yorkers who do not usually wear hijab's to empathize with women who do.
As part of the exercise, the men and women competing had to wrap themselves in the hijab in the traditional manner and then compete in a short footrace.
Another part of the game called the "personal space challenge" required men and women to perform tasks together, like running with a hula hoop, without making physical contact, which is forbidden in some parts of Islam.
