In conversation with Charlotte Littlewood: Calling out Colonial Amnesia & False Narratives

A Whole Lotta Gray

This episode's guest is Ms Charlotte Littlewood, a fellow at The Henry Jackson Society- a UK based think-tank concerned with protecting the values of freedom and democracy in modern society. Ms Littlewood has undertaken projects that focused heavily on women’s rights and tackling domestic violence problems. Additionally, she's served as a Counter-Extremism coordinator for an East London borough on behalf of the UK government. Alongside this, she has also consulted for Muslims Against Antisemitism, working towards greater tolerance and cohesion between communities in the UK. She's also conducted extensive study involving Hate-Crimes against British Hindus, a topic where there exists little to no scholarly literature. This is a must-listen to conversation between Anish and Charlotte- covering a whole host of topics, including, but not limited to, the dangers of neglecting fact-based evidence in order to pander to certain people, the travesties and selective amnesia associated with Empire and why Hindus tend to get a bad rap.
