Rudrank is an Indian man. He used to work part-time as a student at the Hollister store in Cardiff. They felt sidelined by their shop managers, experiencing unequal treatment in terms of shifts compared to white colleagues or those born and raised in the UK. Initially, when reporting the issue to HR, no actions were taken. However, after contacting the head HR of the entire South Wales region upon quitting, the matter was addressed. Despite this negative experience, he generally found people in Cardiff to be welcoming, with no other problems encountered so far<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kamal has been living in Cardiff for 17 years. He is a British citizen and came from Palestine. He felt some people consider Muslims as terrorists. He got shouted on the street. He said bad words came from social media like Facebook and X (Twitter), making him feel bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnything that happens in the world is always Muslim, Muslim, Muslim, even someone with a mental health problem doing something,\u201d said Kamal. He thinks Islamophobia is a cause of racism against Muslims. To him, the mass media leads to more Islamophobia, making it harder for Muslims because of the headlines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
