“The denial of civil liberties are meant, in the main, to be hidden from public view”. Regarding policing. A few months ago, i had gone to the police station, I was told by front desk I’ll be seen shortly. Then a woman took over front desk, a mock play happened where people approached with issues that weren’t criminal at all, where she directed them all away instead of hearing them. The ordinary process is 1

A sociologist conducted a research paper for the police college + collected some racist essays written by cadets He refused to hand it over when asked. Sadly, these days, organisations you work for can take it to remove evidence within, if you have documents, receipts, etc. He left the organisation because he would be colluding. A scholar said that if you remain with people who are oppressing, you become like them.

The police beating up people then lying and charging people with the offences that they themselves actually committed is so… abuse of power. Absolute abuse of power because they control and record the evidence. News, media, etc, this is always a reminder how with ability and influence, history can be rewritten and even harm done is projected and villain to victim done by those who have enforcement power.

In 1972, 4 young black men, who also happened to be members of a radical black organisation, were imprisoned for 2 years each, while having no stolen items on them + maintained their innocence. They were released a year early. My Prophet (SAWS) would have addressed the issue of radicalisation & not falsely imprisoned. I’d gather Jesus, Isa (AS), who healed people, would not approve of this either.

In 1998, a law, I believe, was said to be abolished, however, it remains in effect, particularly wielded by white people against a non white person. With it being illegitimately applying sharia law having engineered the situation on a disabled person to hand over responsibility to sharia law instead, while, in actuality, it originated from historic barbaric practices.

A boycott of bus services led to the dissolution of disqualifying black people from being recruited into the bus industry. That’s wonderful. People working together to create meaningful changes. Peaceful resistance through boycotting bus services. In autobiography of Malcolm X, he spoke about how everyone lined up to free a person or stop a person from being harmed. The act of collective peaceful resistance worked.

Stationed in India, yk. Then picking up + disposing of black + brown people at its own convenience. This 1st happened in response to race riots where repatriation drives were the response. If done today or future, anyone indignant would leave using their white privilege for good. The race relations board created to hear complaints but existed for posturing purposes. Most black + Asian people didn’t know about it.

Acts of discrimination under the race relations act 1965 was said to include an unreasonable delay in serving someone, overcharging, etc. Last year, a staff at a fish + chips shop made fun of me for lip reading, instead of being discouraged from disability discrimination, this year, they were made to overcharge me as retaliation from others. She was smiling so much. That’s both race + disability discrimination.

At any time, due to retaliation, inability to address own racism, peoples citizenship + movement can be affected even if you’re born here. It’s just as much ours as theirs. We’re supposed to be protected, especially the sick + disabled, not weaken or justify absence of protections. Equality Act 2010 was made for us.

In Notting Hill, 1958, white people were arrested (not unequal in that sense) for racist attacks. But it was downplayed as ‘hooliganism’ by both parties and the original source ignored. This continues today in news publications, some which are noted for their lack of impartiality. My Prophet (SAWS), I feel, would have noted the source to be able to address the underlying issue to cultivate good race relations.

They hear you in one of their interview rooms when the previous people are finished. So I was sat waiting. She then asked me what my issue is which was weird, I told her I’m waiting to be seen and she pressed me to come to her. There was a woman scanning a card on the laminating printer which was so weird, you hardly ever see anyone behind the front desk, it’s always just one person handling the desk. She wouldn’t let me speak properly and told me it’s not an issue even though the law states it is. They always hear you in the interview room and since I was waiting and there was no queue remaining, only one other person maybe or not which is usually the case, it was so manufactured and deviated from the norm, I was waiting to be served, there was no queue, I was next. Then prior to this I had called them, and there was no conversation about victims support, I hadn’t alerted to them to any other organisations. Not on my records - this can be manufactured if it makes anyone look bad of course but I swear on Allah (SWT) there was no signposting to victims support. Some random person, I have no idea who they are, they’re not even from victims support, they called me and started asking how I’m doing and I hung up because they started asking questions that wasn’t even relevant at all. They said police gave them my number, which is weird, you can’t do that without someone’s consent. I swear on God. She was asking questions that were completely irrelevant to what I even went for and it was a so called legitimate organisation who apparently starting randomly doing night services or something which isn’t the norm at all for those organisations. It looked like a trap to present people as mentally ill to justify offing them later if they needed. Which is why our elders said stay away from these mental health services. There is still racism and Islamophobia. They control the evidence, they can write up whatever, abuse power, be racist, even use non white people to do it which is even more racist and Islamophobic. Stick to your people, create communities, don’t use these services who can be hijacked by people who don’t like us, even if they give you benefits to harm a non white person, even that is racist and especially Islamophobic because they’re taking you away from religion, making you lie, and causing corruption in the land.
