anti-Muslim hate has been under-recognised & under-reported. BMT exists to change that — by listening to communities, amplifying their voices, & working with partners to ensure that no one is left to face hate alone. We are here to stand with victims and help shape a more inclusive, united Britain.

Growing up with a Dad from India and a Mum from Cork, as a British Asian Irish Catholic, I very much recognise the era Akeela recalled. The p-word was used indiscriminately by racists in the '80s who didn't know or care about who was Muslim or Hindu, Sikh or Christian, or none of those.

This manifests differently in different cultures/societies/countries with women and girls having varying rights depending where they are born but it is a common denominator. This bias against women and girls is a driving factor in why they are not believed when they report rape/
sexual violence.
