"A briefing paper on the ways in which community organisations are combating the fall-out - in terms of racial violence, Islamophobia, anti-terror policing and human rights abuses - from the war on terror. Since September 11 2001 and, especially since the London attacks of 7/7, community organisations in the UK have had to face up to the impact at home of the government's so-called war on terror and the concomitant demonisation of Muslims in the media and popular discourse.Representatives from a number of community organisations spoke at the IRR's conference on 'Racism, liberty and the war on terror' on 16 September 2006."
