A number of emailed comments have been received by the production team:
This comment was for the executive producer Emma Kehoe who is based at Southwark Council – “the Mosque documentary launch was outstanding, the attendance was very good, so many people. I enjoyed the panel, especially the young girl from the radio station (eclectic productions/reprezent); her responses to some of the difficult questions were very mature and detailed. The evening was a great success and without your vision this would not have happened.”
This doctoral student said – “The fact that it has been split into sections that can be watched separately allows it to fit different approaches and purposes. I also liked the way the DVD intertwines different voices and points of view: the youth, the police, the mosques and imams, etc. Likewise, I found really interesting the historical account of the development of the Muslim communities in London and in Southwark, in particular.”
From an Australian academic to CTVT’s Chris Haydon – “Hossein and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the product of your amazing work in Southwark. I hope more people get to see it to help dispel stereotypes and fears.”
From Southwark PCT – “its greatest strength is the way it captures the great diversity of the Muslim community in Southwark.”
