'“Greed is gross. Greed is vile. Greed sucks.”
Yasmin Alibhai‑Brown is a veteran journalist and author whose writing covers race, identity, migration, and multicultural Britain. Born in Kampala and relocating to the UK in 1972, she went on to become one of the first regular national‑newspaper columnists of colour in Britain, a founder of British Muslims for Secular Democracy, and a fierce advocate for inclusive public discourse.
Her books, No Place Like Home, Exotic England, and In Defence of Political Correctness probe how societies change and who gets left behind when they do. Across columns for The i, Evening Standard, The Guardian, and The Independent, she challenges institutional complacency and asks whether Britain’s promise of fairness survives in practice. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, Alibhai‑Brown is celebrated for bringing moral clarity and cultural sensitivity to her uncompromising commentary.
“She burrows deep into the psyche of the multicultural nation.” — Yash Tandon.
