Shafaqna English– The not-for-profit, which has been recording anti-Muslim hate crime for 13 years and helping victims get justice, now faces an uncertain future.
For its pains, staff faced death threats from the far right, a risk so serious it necessitated an office change at the height of the hate. There have been critics too within Britain’s Muslim community, who, according to ‘Tell Mama’ leadership, were intolerant of the organisation’s tolerance.
It means that, at a time of soaring bigotry, there is now no government-funded group carrying out anti-Muslim hate monitoring in the UK, and this is expected to be the case into the summer.
