Fighting Stereotypes in the U.K.

"In the Telegraph, Damian Thompson has an interesting short piece titled “When Islam met the diversity industry.” He notes the incongruous compatibility between British Muslims and the heretofore aggressively secular diversity industry.

Thompson focuses on the Islamic Diversity Centre in Newcastle. Much could be said about this group’s activities, but I want to focus on just one observation. The IDC’s stated purpose is challenging stereotypes of Islam. It is therefore rather stunning that when the group introduces its staff to readers of its web site, the most persistent stereotypes are abundantly confirmed.

Check out the IDC team page, which describes the individuals on the organization’s staff." [Power Line]

Note the "diversity" in the images of their female staff !!!! [clipper\
