Head-to-Head "Freedom of speech: Who cares what Muslims think?"
Sajjad Khan vs. Claire Fox
Sajjad Khan
Editor of New Civilisation Magazine - A quarterly publication providing a unique perspective on Islamic political thinking to the western world, initiated as a unique forum to debate and discuss issues relating to Islamic political discourse seeking to do away with the tired labels of fundamentalist or moderate and instead engage with people holding a concerted rational opinion on these matters from all shades of the political spectrum: left, right and centre.
vs.
Claire Fox
Director of The Institute of Ideas. Its mission is to expand the boundaries of public debate. It is committed to scientific and social experimentation, intellectual ambition and curiosity. Embracing change and making history. Art for art's sake, knowledge for its own sake, and education as an end in itself. Freedom. To think, to act, to say what needs saying - even if it offends others. Challenging irrational social panics. Open and robust debate, in which ideas can be interrogated, argued for and fought over. Civil liberties, with no ifs or buts.
