Sara Khan

Dame Sara Khan, former counter-extremism commissioner and advisor on social cohesion, teams up with Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff to explore the lessons learned since last summer's riots. They discuss the tragic catalyst of the Southport murders and how systemic failures contributed to rising unrest. The conversation delves into the roots of social discontent, the dangers of misinformation, and the vital importance of grassroots engagement for rebuilding community trust. Political responses to unrest, and the pressing need for better communication, are also critically examined.
