Hawzah News Agency (London, UK) - The report says: “Islamophobia is rooted in racism and is a type of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness.”
The group launched a project in April to define Islamophobia in a way acceptable to all British Muslim communities and one that could “operate across governmental, public, community and private sector organizations.”
The group members collected accounts of many Islamophobic experiences faced by Muslims.
The report highlights that there has been no attempt made by the British government to adopt a definition of Islamophobia despite its recognition of the negative impact on British Muslim communities.
