#LSEreligion lecture: “Saying that we have to live together is not enough” – Tariq Ramadan

Earlier this month, Professor Tariq Ramadan gave a lecture at LSE entitled Equal Rights and Equal Dignity of Human Beings as part of LSE’s Religion and the Public sphere lecture series. Here, ISoc President Mahmoudat Sanni-Oba reviews the lecture. A secular public sphere, Ramadan argues, must foster diversity and should be informed by – amongst other things – religion. Toleration isn’t enough; to really live together we must be ‘active’ together.
