Aliya Mustafina congratulates/consoles Viktoria Komova and then looks at the scores for her after a great floor routine by Komova in the all around finals that they both know will most likely not be enough to catch up to the front-runner and eventual champion Gabby Douglas.
BADASS Muslimahs
I've had enough of the sensationalist, exoticised, demeaning portrayals of Muslim women seen all throughout the media, and this is my way of countering all the nonsense.
This is not an attempt at 'breaking stereotypes' or trying to enlighten people, if you're ignorant enough to believe that Muslim women are oppressed and subjugated by Islam then that's your own problem.
This is my way of giving recognition to all the women who inspire me, and hopefully sending out some positive vibes.
Peace.

This is Aliya Mustafina. She’s a Russian gymnast, a Muslim, and is ethnically of Tatar descent (thanks, Google). She was Alicia Sacramone’s main competition during the 2010 World Championships. Alicia got gold, Aliya got silver. She’ll be competing in the next Summer Olympics, without a doubt. BASICALLY, she’s doing big things, so keep an eye out for her…if you want.

Aliya Mustafina is concurrently powerful and graceful in red, but she only sees gold.
