MPHIL SOCIOLOGY OF MARGINALITY AND EXCLUSION, UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE

Currently working as a Media and Policy Analyst, I have a keen interest in how the representation of Muslims and Islam in discourse impacts the prevalence of Islamophobia.

I believe that tech-based companies, in particular, social media platforms, are quickly garnering a monopoly over the production and transmission of discourse.

I hope to utilise my MSc to investigate how the Internet, and Internet-based technologies, impact that production, maintenance and propagation of Islamophobic discourse and how this impacts the growth of far-right networks.
