Tharik Hussain is a British-Muslim travel writer and author who’s been travelling in search of Europe's native Muslim communities.
Tharik released his book Minarets in the Mountains: A Journey into Muslim Europe in July which is all about his adventures around the Western Balkans, connecting with muslims who have lived there for centuries.
During the episode, Tharik talks about the way Muslim heritage has been erased from travel literature by colonial-era writers, what elements of the journey surprised him and challenged his preconceptions about muslim identity, and why travel writing desperately needs more diverse voices.
