“The controversy revolves around the nature of Sharia-compliant clothing, which is associated with connotations of cultural and gender-based oppression within Islamic contexts, thus validating these aspects.
Brooklyn Park — Amazon’s Brooklyn Park facility is under intense scrutiny following its collaboration with Somali-owned Henna and Hijabs, a controversial Minneapolis-based company specializing in sharia-compliant clothing. The partnership has ignited an outcry due to its focus on providing female Islamic supremacist employees with uniforms that align with their beliefs—an initiative that caters to Islamic extremism.
Introducing new uniforms, including hijabs, has drawn sharp criticism, as they are designed to meet the demands of female Islamic supremacist workers at the Brooklyn Park facility, where there are several hundred employees, and nearly half of them are East African. Although presented as an accommodation of religious practices, the partnership has raised concerns about Amazon’s endorsement of extreme ideologies.
