Where’s The Muppet Dressed As A Nun?
Oh wait…that would probably be offensive to non-Christians…
Sesame Street unveiled a fresh face Thursday: a hijab-wearing Afghani Muppet named Zari who will teach kids about “girl empowerment, social and emotional wellbeing.”
Zari will first appear in season five of Baghch-e-Simsim, which is the Afghan version of Sesame Street.
The popular children show’s Twitter account was abuzz with Zari content Thursday.
