Stories from the Archives

In this first series of Stories from the Archives, we delve into a selection of oral histories in the Everyday Muslim collection to bring you snapshots of Muslim life in Britain from the 1950s through to the present day. From first Christmases sat at a church organ in Whitby and expeditions in Barnet searching for chilli peppers to the establishment of community organisations and encounters with glaring racism, the episodes follow the lives and experiences of Muslims who call Britain home.
