How, and why, have perceptions of Muslims changed in our society? What does this mean for Muslims growing up today? What has triggered large spikes in anti-Muslim prejudice and hatred, following the Brexit referendum and election of Donald Trump? Offering an informed overview of a frighteningly common issue experienced by Muslims today, this book examines the changes in perception of Muslims that have taken place in recent years. Fiyaz Mughal combines his experience of growing up as a Muslim in the UK, decades of involvement in activism and politics, and his own analysis to deliver a critical discussion of this increasingly alarming reality. Looking at how decisions by the media and governments have been counter-productive in reducing anti-Muslim hatred, and the impact of Brexit and Donald Trump, this expose reveals an uncomfortable truth about the impact of Islamophobia on the lives of Muslims in Western societies today.
Fiyaz Mughal OBE is Founder and Director of Faith Matters and Tell MAMA, two NGOs that work for interfaith dialogue and against anti-Muslim hate crime.
