      Islamophobia inquiries only work if people take them seriously

      A report commissioned by the UK's ruling party found problems, only to ignore efforts to solve them

      CommentJune 10, 2021
      Zahid Quraishi, nominated by US President Joe Biden to be a US District Judge for the District of New Jersey, is sworn in to testify before a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on pending judicial nominations on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC on April 28. AFP

      Play8:45:52
      Citizenship must be sacrosanct – even Shamima Begum's

      CommentFebruary 28, 2021

      The sanctity of places of worship is universal, yet their perception as targets is centuries old

      The Christchurch attack was a manifestation of a broad sense bigotry festering in our societies
