Tangled in Terror: Uprooting Islamophobia, with Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan [online event]
Short url:
Islamophobia is everywhere. It is a narrative and history woven so deeply into our everyday lives that we don’t even notice it – in our education, how we travel, our healthcare, legal system and at work. Behind the scenes it affects the most vulnerable, at the border and in prisons. Despite this, the conversation about Islamophobia is relegated to microaggressions and slurs.
Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan reveals how Islamophobia not only lives under the skin of those who it marks, but is an international political project designed to divide people in the name of security, in order to materially benefit global stakeholders. It can only be truly uprooted when we focus not on what it is but what it does.
Tangled in Terror shows that until the most marginalised Muslims are safe, nobody is safe.
Part of the Pluto Outspoken series
