Islamophobia can only be substantiated through provable consequential harm
Evidence
If Miles and Brownâs theories are correct, as indeed the observations of this research, then anti-Muslim, anti-Islamic phenomena must be grounded and rooted in empirical evidence that proves a consequential impact or effect in different socio-economic and socio-political strata. This, as established previously, is yet to be adequately achieved where the evidence remains anecdotal and founded upon over-inflationary accusations and hyperbole. Thus the substantiating of âa set of exclusionary practices including such exclusion as in discrimination in employment, housing and other socio-economic spheres as well as subjection to violence as a tool of exclusionâ is contemporarily a matter of extreme urgency. â Chris Allen, Islamophobia, 797
