Black and Muslim in Britain

The Black and Muslim in Britain Project was initiated in October 2016 with the intention of addressing the lack of faith representation during Black History Month in the UK. We have experienced an overwhelming response on social media from many Black Muslims around the UK from different ages and backgrounds who could relate and empathise with the importance of ensuring that we provide a platform to present a plethora of stories, struggles, rich history, challenges, culture, politics, family traditions and the beauty of being Black and Muslim. 

With this ethos in mind, The Black and Muslim Project has grown so much since it's conception. A five-part YouTube series was launched during the 30th Anniversary of Black History Month UK at an exclusive sold out screening and panel discussion in October 2017. This event was well received by a high volume of people both on and offline; as well as the project being featured on AJ+, Buzzfeed, Okay Africa, Amaliah and Ummah Sonic.
