Flags on lampposts.Protests outside hotels.Intimidation & Fear dressed up as patriotism.
But this wasn’t a political conversation.It was a human one.
Sham spoke about growing up British and Muslim, being “othered”, parenting through uncertainty, and finding strength in faith without needing to preach.
We talked about intention vs impact.About how silence can feel like complicity.
And about why contact centres, quietly get inclusion right.
If you’ve felt uneasy but unsure how to articulate it…
If you believe we have more in common than we admit…
If you still think conversation matters…
I’d really encourage you to listen.
