Halleh Ghorashi is an advocate of a more inclusive political mindset, contrary to the political climate of the Netherlands at the beginning of the 21st century with its strong populists and its anti-Islamic discourse. Ghorashi argues that if immigrants are demonized and excluded from the political debate, integration into Dutch society cannot be expected.
