Pacific coexistence - Two Jewish Orthodox mothers and two African mothers
Some explanations about the head covers: The Halacha (Jewish law) about covering hair is strictly for married women. An unmarried woman of any age may walk around in public with her hair completely uncovered. This is true even amongst the most Charedi (ultra religious) of Jews. But when a woman gets married, she is required to cover her hair. Women in many parts of Africa and the West Indies often cover their heads with intricately tied scarves which may be called scarves, head wraps, or turbans, like here.
