Prevent: Racist and Islamophobic

Speakers: Nahella Ashraf (Stand Up to Racism*), Richard Haley (SACC), Zareen Taj (Muslim Women's Association of Edinburgh)

*Nahella Ashraf is also Chair of Manchester Stop the War Coalition

"Prevent" is coming to Scotland.

The 'Prevent' duty aims to identify those individuals likely to cause a threat to the state but it in fact spies on us all and attempts to eliminate dissent of any kind. As it overwhelmingly targets and criminalises the Muslim community we discuss how toxic it will be as it spreads through our public sector, colleges and schools; creating mistrust between employers & employees, educators & students.

Join the discussion to find out what you can do to oppose 'Prevent' and the erosion of our civil liberties.

Hosted by Muslim Women's Association of Edinburgh.
Supported by Scotland Against Criminalising Communities, Edinburgh Stop the War Coalition, Unite Against Fascism Edinburgh, Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign
