The anti-Muslim riots of the summer of 2024 have pushed Islamophobia right to the top of the political agenda. From those riots – fuelled by racist misinformation which spread quickly on social media after the Southport knife attacks – to the hatred directed at Muslims in public life during the Gaza conflict, anti-Muslim racism is dangerously out of control.
Sayeeda Warsi is Britain’s best-known Muslim. She was a cabinet minister under David Cameron who resigned over the 2014 Gaza war. In this incisive book, Sayeeda Warsi uses her dual experience at the centre of British power and in the heart of our Muslim communities to urge us to change course, to unite and dismantle this toxic bigotry.
