Drive Time Show Podcast 07-09-2026 Racism: Who Gets a Fair Hearing

Literacy: Knowledge in a Changing World

Join our hosts for Monday’s show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘Media Bias and Racism' and 'Literacy: Knowledge in a Changing World'.

Media Bias and Racism

Join us as we examine media coverage and double standards, asking why some cases receive intense national attention while others receive far less, and whether race influences how stories are reported and perceived.

Literacy: Knowledge in a Changing World

In a rapidly changing world, literacy is more than simply the ability to read and write. It gives individuals the knowledge and confidence to understand the world around them, make informed decisions and access opportunities. Join us as we explore the importance of literacy and lifelong learning in today’s society, and consider how the teachings of Islam emphasise the pursuit of knowledge as a means of personal, spiritual and societal development.
