What did you get up to this weekend? 🤯
For every Muslim, black or brown person you know, it was hell. Here's some key steps you can take as allies and professionals that can help. 🧵

❤️ LOVE MATTERS. The silver lining has been seeing neighbours and friends get in front of these mobs, or helping clean up after the destruction. That's what we are fighting for.

🫂 EMPATHY MATTERS. Check in with Muslim colleagues. They're not fine. They may not have fully processed there are mobs on the streets of their home attacking anyone who looks like them. Provide safe space, empathy and understanding if they're distracted and accommodate any flex

538
🎓 MINDSET MATTERS. This isn't a nuanced debate that requires equal airing of all sides. These mobs are attacking our version of democracy and society. These aren't protesters pushing for a change in government policy. They are attacking marginalised parts of your community.
3
66
464
📢 VOICES MATTER. Amplify Muslim and Anti- Racist voices. Find someone you resonate with. Share their stories and connect with them. It humanises us and allows authentic voices airspace. This is a strong antidote to the disinformation strategy that triggered these attacks.

455
📰 MEDIA MATTERS. For many of us, this is shocking but not unsurprising. This is the culmination of decades of dog-whistle politics and media bosses pandering to the worst instincts in society. Marginalised and demonised, it is hard for Muslims to break free from this narrative.

Walthamstow is my home and has been home to five generations of my British Muslim Immigrant Family.

While fighting him for two consecutive elections, I met with so many people forever damaged by his policies. But simply hating him or the idea of his knighthood won't be enough. He keeps winning. We must listen, learn and convince his constituents for a better way.
Feel sick about IDS being rewarded with a knighthood for decades of utter cruelty and incompetence.
IDS is the father of policies that have caused untold pain and suffering to people with disabilities. It’s a disgrace that he’ll be a knight and that he’s still an MP.
