Join us for a talk with Julian Hargreaves, Centre of Islamic Studies, discussing her paper studying anti-Muslim hate crime and its gendered dimension. The paper supports the notion that much of the existing research literature concerning anti-Muslim hate crime and discrimination has adopted either a non-gender specific approach or a demonstrable male bias in its descriptions of violent abuse and state-sponsored discrimination against British Muslim communities. Findings from an examination of large-scale social survey data are then used to describe the increased risks of hate crime and discrimination faced by British Muslim women (particularly in public places). Using these data, this paper argues that dominant narratives regarding Muslim victimisation by right-wing groups and discrimination by crime and security agencies have done much to overshadow or displace debates relating to the ‘everyday’ hate crimes suffered by British Muslim women. An examination of recent theoretical perspectives is combined with findings from the analysis of Crime Survey of England and Wales and Citizenship Survey data to support assertions from the literature relating to the pronounced and measurable targeting of gender embedded within much anti-Muslim hatred. Finally, this paper reflects on whether the prevalence of ‘everyday’ hate crime against British Muslim women might be capable of supporting arguments for the increased recognition of gender-based violence as a hate crime.
