100: Anti-racism after the fascist riots: what do we do now?
Update: 2024-09-04
Description
With white supremacist riots targeting Muslims and peoples of colour, this was a summer to forget for many of our communities in the UK. Building on the work that Another Europe has undertaken for several years on challenging anti-Muslim racism across Europe, Luke Cooper spoke to Shaista Aziz, a co-director of the anti-racist campaign group, Three Hijabis, a longstanding member of Another Europe and a friend of the podcast. They discuss the horrifying attacks we’ve seen on our communities and the enabling role played by mainstream Islamophobia.
For some background reading check out Another Europe's statement on the riots here, our report on Islamophobia in France here and the UK and Germany here and the Three Hijabis website. Shaista has also been involved in a really important campaign, 'Safe Homes, Not Hotels', organised by Conversations About Borders. You can sign their petition to house asylum seekers here.
There’s no 'extra time' this week as we thought we’d put the whole episode of the podcast out in full. We’d still urge you to join the campaign and support our work. Members of Another Europe get access to extra podcast material as a benefit of supporting the campaign. To join go to anothereurope.org/join
