Secular Jihadists for a Muslim Enlightenment

EP48: Nick Cohen: The Liberal Blindspot on Islam & Muslims


Listen Later

Nick Cohen is the renowned journalist behind the excellent radio documentary, "The Silence of the Liberals," on how modern mainstream liberals and left-wing activists have failed progressive Muslims and ex-Muslims. He is the author of “What's Left? How the Left Lost Its Way” and “You Can't Read This Book,” both of which have grown even more relevant with time. In this episode, we focus on the reasons behind the left's failure to properly address Islam and Muslims; the rise of Trumpism and the populist right; where progressive and ex-Muslims are left in the balance; and how we can strike the right balance between challenging ideas and protecting human rights. Check it out.
