Alumna Lucy James (Year of ‘2003) came to talk to the Politics Society on Tuesday 14 September. Lucy now works for the Quilliam Foundation, the world’s first counter-extremism think tank, and in her fascinating talk, explained to us exactly what the foundation stands for and what sort of work they do. She left us with no doubt in our minds as to the importance of a free society. Lucy is also the author of In Defence Of British Muslims: A response to BNP racist propaganda and co-author of Immigrant, Muslim, Female: Triple Paralysis?
