Thank you so much for your question.
I think it's important to highlight the different perspectives with regard to this debate. One perspective of this debate is that we need to call it out for what it is, which is anti-Muslim hatred. It's not this fear that people have. It's clearly targeted against the Muslim community and it should be called anti-Muslim hate. Another perspective of this is that there is a fear that if we start deeming things to be Islamophobic, then one cannot criticize the religion or criticize the religious texts, which is a right that people have.
That being said, I believe this debate is ongoing. I don't see a resolution coming any time soon. That is at a theoretical level. On a practical level, what I think needs to be understood is that all citizens and all human beings deserve those equal rights. They deserve the rights and freedoms that everyone has.
What we label it in particular is not as relevant. What are we doing to keep everyone safe, to keep everyone included and to make sure that everyone has the opportunity and freedom that everyone is afforded? That's what needs to be looked at.
Unfortunately, I don't have the good news of sharing that there's a resolution to this debate any time soon.
