'Britz' – yet another negative protrayal of Muslims and Islam
"This is just the latest in a seemingly never ending torrent of negative portrayals of Muslims and Islam. Both films and television will claim to tackle any number of difficult issues, yet they find it impossible to show Muslims in a realistic manner. If there is no room for our reflection in their media mirror, then it's time we made our own mirrors."
A Muslim blogger responds to the Channel 4 drama Britz.
Update: MPACUK have posted a link to an interesting discussion from BBC Asian Network featuring Moazzam Begg, Saba Zaman and others, though we could have done without the speaker from British Muslims for Secular Democracy.
