It isn't easy being a Jewish Quaker in Britain at the moment. That wasn't always the case, and it isn't a matter of divided loyalties.

I was asked to write a blog post for Islamophobia Awareness Month and I felt unsure. I could write about the reports we (the Peacebuilding in Britain team) review as part of our ongoing conflict analysis. Like the latest Home Office report on hate crimes stats showing a 19% increase in religious hate crimes targeted at Muslims in England and Wales (excluding the Metropolitan Police Service). I could write about Scottish TV reporting that Muslim Engagement and Development Scotland are increasingly concerned with the “alarming rise" in Islamophobic incidents within recent months, following a wave of attacks. I could write about the racially targeted violence towards people seeking sanctuary in hotels, some of whom will be Muslim. But what I really wanted to do was to listen to Muslim friends and share at least one example of how it feels to be Muslim in the UK right now.
