U.S. Senate Candidate Deedra Abboud will hold a press conference and give a speech titled, "Being American and Muslim."
Deedra has been the subject of social media attacks throughout the month of July, sparked by both her religion and her run for Senate. These attacks have garnered national media attention and Monday's press conference will serve as a moving response.
"My religion is not something I can hide, nor is it something I would choose to. Much like a Catholic wearing a crucifix, or a Jew donning a kippa, or a Sikh wearing a turban, I display my religion openly. My scarf does not define me, but it is a part of my story. And that story is a complex one, especially in today's political climate."
