British Muslim Identity

British Muslim Identity

Successive generations face issues of identity and citizenship. The question of who we are, as a nation and as individuals, is very prevalent at this present time especially amongst young British Muslims who live in a fast-moving and technologically advanced society. It attracts a great deal of media attention and it can be argued that much of the analysis of this topic is critical and often lacking depth.

As a society we need to understand one another across cultural and faith boundaries. In our diverse communities around the country people live, study and work alongside one another, sometimes without fully understanding each other. This project aims to address a few of the negative perceptions and stereotypes of young British Muslims. Through this publication, we aim to show how young people feel and think about Muslims in Great Britain.
