In this episode of The Thinking Muslim, I am joined by Professor Salman Sayyid to explore the roots, evolution, and contemporary manifestations of Islamophobia. Drawing on history, politics, colonialism, identity, and global power dynamics, Professor Sayyid examines how anti-Muslim prejudice is reproduced across generations and why understanding Islamophobia is essential to understanding the modern world.
We discuss the legacy of colonialism, questions of Muslim sovereignty, integration and identity in Europe and the United States, the relationship between Islamophobia and violence, and how Muslims can engage more effectively with wider society during a time of growing solidarity with Palestine.
