Heres my response to rising Islamophobia in Queensland. I feel its important for political candidates to take a public stance on this issue. Many of our elected representatives and public officials use loaded language that incorrectly conflates Islam with terrorism, but they shy away from directly confronting and correcting the myths that contribute to Islamophobia. As a non-Muslim, my perspective and understanding of the lived experiences of Australian Muslims will always be limited, and I dont presume to speak on behalf of anyone else. Hopefully this video will prompt people to seek out information from reliable sources rather than from sensationalist tabloid media. Share it round.
