‘The Real’ Lands In Trouble With Discrimination Complaint Over Muslim Hijab Controversy

‘The Real’ hosted by Tamar Braxton, Loni Love, Adrienne Bailon, Jeannie Mai and Tamera Mowry-Housley has landed in some trouble over discrimination. According to the complaint, in February two viewers wearing hijab were asked to stay out of the cameras’ view. The compliant was filed by the L.A. branch of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-LA).

Fatima Dadabhoy — the senior civil rights attorney for the council’s LA chapter — said in a statement, “Warner Bros. has no legal justification for removing the hijab-wearing women from the camera’s view. No studio should maintain such a discriminatory policy that prohibits people wearing religious head coverings from being seen in its studio audiences. It’s especially baffling that this particular show would want to hide their visibly-Muslim viewers, when the show purports to cater to a wide-ranging audience with its diverse cast.”

The organization claims that, “While waiting to enter the taping, studio officials told the… hijab-wearing women [that they] could not sit in the front row because they should not be seen on camera in accordance with studio policy. They complied with the request.”

The studio is doing an investigation themselves as well. In a statement Warner Bros says, “Warner Bros. policy is to welcome everyone and anyone into our studio audience. ‘The Real’ is a show that was created to represent and celebrate diversity. We take this inquiry seriously and are looking into the matter.”

Stay tuned as more details start to unfold.
