Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
TV cook and author tells Desert Island Discs she has come to expect being ‘shoved, pushed or verbally abused’
Nadiya Hussain, the winner of last year’s Great British Bake Off, says that racist abuse has become an everyday part of her life.
Speaking on Sunday’s Desert Island Discs on BBC Radio 4, Hussain said she is astounded at being credited for her positive effect on race relations with the Muslim community as she described the anti-Islamic abuse she still suffers.
“It sounds really silly [but] it feels like that’s become a part of my life now– I expect it,” she said. “I expect to be shoved or pushed or verbally abused, because it happens, it’s happened for years.”
The 31-year-old said the abuse has made her even more determined to be a role model to her three children and the wider Muslim community.
Hussain said: “I love being British and I love living here, this is my home and it always will be regardless of all the other things that define me. This is my home and I want my kids to be proud of that and I don’t want them to grow up with a chip on their shoulder, so I live as positively as I can.”
During her 10 years as a stay-at-home mother, Hussain said she “got so bogged down in being the best housewife” that she began losing herself, trapped in a bubble where she only spoke to close family and feared strangers’ judgment.
“I couldn’t get on a bus with them [her two eldest children] because I was so afraid of people looking at me, or people thinking I looked horrible, or people judging me and how could she possibly have two children in that space of time?” she said.
Hussain also spoke about her own childhood, from happy times living in Bangladesh to the family’s reliance on her grandmother while her parents cared for her two seriously ill siblings in hospital.
She said she bought her parents’ first house for them at the age of 19, adding: “I’ve spent my whole life watching my parents sacrifice things for me, so buying a house was nothing.”
Among the tracks she chose on the show was Counting Crows’ Accidentally in Love, which is the song that her now husband Abdul played in the background when they began courting each other before tying the knot in an arranged marriage aged 19.
She said her husband still serenades her with the song every day.
Since her victory in the final of Bake Off, which was the most-watched TV show in 2015 with 15 million viewers, Hussain’s career has skyrocketed. Her first cookbook, Nadiya’s Kitchen, was released in June, she writes a cooking column for the Times, and made the Queen’s 90th birthday cake.
She will also present an upcoming two-part BBC series called The Chronicles of Nadiya, which is described as “an exuberant food-inspired journey from Nadiya’s birthplace in Luton to her family village in the north-east of Bangladesh”, as well as judging the new Junior Bake Off.
Last week, Hussain told the Times she began wearing a hijab at the age of 14 to cover up her “bad hair more than anything else” because her father “cut it really badly”. Her parents, she said, were not particularly religious and neither her mother nor three sisters wore a hijab when she was growing up.

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
Sorry, but where was the actual part about the racism she suffered daily?
"During her 10 years as a stay-at-home mother, Hussain said she “got so bogged down in being the best housewife” that she began losing herself, trapped in a bubble where she only spoke to close family and feared strangers’ judgment."
Seems like she did not get out much. Shame, I wanted to see her experinces on racism, and all the article did was go on about how she has been good for intercommunity relations. Seems that now the throw in the "racism" aspect in headline and one sentence is what this story is wrongly trying to sell on.
The article without that is actually very good.
Shame they spoilt it the guardian

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
She revealed she has received abuse after "massive things happen" in the news, from 11 September 2001 onwards.
"I've had things thrown at me and [been] pushed and shoved," she said.
Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs, she said: "I feel like that's just become a part of my life now. I expect it. Absolutely I expect it."
Nadiya, 31, continued: "I expect to be shoved or pushed or verbally abused because that happens. It's been happening for years."
Asked by host Kirsty Young how she reacted, she said she did not retaliate.
"I feel like there's a dignity in silence, and I think if I retaliate to negativity with negativity, then we've evened out," she said.
"And I don't need to even that out because if somebody's being negative, I need to be the better person.
"Because I've got young children, the one thing I don't want my kids to do is have a negative attitude to living in the UK because, yes, there are those negative people, but they are the minority."
She added: "I love being British and I love living here and this is my home and it always will be.
"Regardless of all the other things that define me, this is my home. And I want my kids to be proud of that, and I don't want my kids to grow up with a chip on their shoulder.
"So I live as positively as I can and all those things that do happen to me, hey, it happens but it happens to other people too and we deal with it."

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
Which is like I said, they never made any views on this and just threw this in the headline to sell the story.
I never said I denied her claims, only that the headline is a farce, as it does not go into detail on the racism.
You do understand that?
They have basically tried to intice people to read this based off racism, when it plays next to nothing within the article

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
Yawn. It made a huge impact in the programme and Kirsty seemed quite at a loss on how to deal with it. But then, we all have to bow to Didge and only Didge knows anything, even though I doubt very much he listened to the programme and actually knows fuck all as normal.

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
I think the article has been very much spoilt, as to what would have been a pleasant article, which had no need of the "racist" aspect thrown into the title and one sentence. As it was misleading people to read the article. As you get the article is going to recount this and yet instead you are treated to some really interestd and at part nice aspects of her life. I call that poor journalism, and even worse thinking people would be interested on the article based simply on her.

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
That's your opinion, it made a huge impact because they weren't expecting her to say anything like that and was reported in many papers.

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
How has it made a huge impact when you have no conception of the number of people who have read all the articles? Youa re just making things up as you go along and avoiding the main point here. That they went off a title to entice people to read this. The huffington post wrote an article which actually goes on about the racism.
Which you can see for yourself
http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/great-british-bake-off-nadiya_uk_57b02cb9e4b0f475601c2313
Hence my point on the Guardian was utetrly misleading, as it states next to nothing on the racism

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
Ignore Didge ...if he needs some titillating gutter smearing BS to giggle about perhaps he'd just 'Google/Bing/STFW' for her information like any of us are able too do! She's a wonderful soft spoken women that I've admired since this season's show started ...quite 'spunky' she is!

New season to start 2 weeks after the finish of the Summer Olympics! I can't wait!
I was so ecstatic that she won ...when she'd stare back at those deep blue eyes of judge Paul Hollywood {thought that that was a misprint when I first looked it up last year} and she'd just stand her ground and look him square back in the eye's --- WOW, that took GUTS! I'd have been a puddle! LOLhttp://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3739425/Bake-s-Nadiya-Hussain-reveals-racist-abuse-life.html#ixzz4HLQ9Amxu
The 31-year-old star, one of six children born to Bangladeshi parents, makes the shocking revelation on today’s Desert Island Discs.
She says: ‘I’ve had things thrown at me and been pushed and jabbed. It sounds really silly because I feel that it’s just become a part of my life now.
‘I expect it. I absolutely expect to be shoved or pushed or verbally abused because it happens. It’s been happening for years.’
During the interview with host Kirsty Young, Luton-born Nadiya says she believes the best way to deal with such abuse is to refuse to react and instead instil a love of Britain in her own family.
‘I don’t retaliate. I just feel like there is a dignity in silence. I think if I retaliate to negativity with negativity then we’ve evened out.'

Contradiction alert again lol
Again you can make all the excuses you like, the fact is the article by the Guardian on mentions the same aspct on racism as it does in one sentence in their whole article.
They spoilt the article.

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
Odd, how his "POINTS" are often hidden in that muck & mire of his own bilge about 'lefty vs righty' and jew haters galore but he'll troll the every topic you post looking for something that "HIS SUPERIOR SKILLS" with the internet could be readily appeased if that was his 'REASONING FOR HIS ISSUE!'
But we both know that that is not his 'REASONING FOR HIS ISSUE' ~~~ so leave him to stew in his hyped up overly sensitive juices and just enjoy the article and the reason this wonderful woman won her well fought baking season show!
And it was a hard fought contest this time, I thought.

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
You see you have failed to understand again what I am saying
The Huffington post also did an article and actually wrote about the racism
The Guardian just used it in the title to entice people which is really poor and have written then a poor article to reflect this
Either way you simple cannot see this and are making pitiful excuses

Sorry, what on earth are you going on about now?
Sassy is a Jew hater which I have easily proved many times and many times you have slunked off, when I have so quitely, its hilarious. Its embarressing when you do porly attempt to stand up for her and do so again now by deflecting the debate
She is a racist as they come and on the same level as stormi with this kind of hate
Now as you want to talk about sassy, which you brought up, I am happy to do this, but would rather stick to the points of the debate, or do you need another tissue in case you are going to cry?

Born in Luton but lived in Bangladesh as a child... but went to school and college in uk... dad owned a curry restaurant... but she says she bought her parents house for them at the age of 19... saying 'buying the house was nothing'... wonder how she managed to pay for that at 19?
And the racism stuff is complete bollocks!!!

Sassy, didn't write this article ...but brought it in here for an interesting/adult discussion
Nadiya Hussain, the winner of last year’s Great British Bake Off, says that racist abuse has become an everyday part of her life.
Speaking on Sunday’s Desert Island Discs on BBC Radio 4, Hussain said she is astounded at being credited for her positive effect on race relations with the Muslim community as she described the anti-Islamic abuse she still suffers.
“It sounds really silly [but] it feels like that’s become a part of my life now– I expect it,” she said. “I expect to be shoved or pushed or verbally abused, because it happens, it’s happened for years.”
The 31-year-old said the abuse has made her even more determined to be a role model to her three children and the wider Muslim community.
BTW - I could probably count on ONE HAND the members you've NOT called JEW HATERS ...as you seem to label everyone that doesn't swallow your vile/bile that you push daily about Israel
That's how BORINGLY redundant your topics are ...and why you are now trolling Sassy's
Sweet Jesus ...you and your Me-Me ruin loads of nice topics ...and for what purpose.

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
Aged only 19, doing two jobs, she bought her parents’ first house for them as she was sick of their landlord walking into their home. So she asked to buy it from him.
When presenter Kirsty Young commented that was unusual, Nadiya replied: “I’ve spent my whole life watching my parents sacrifice things for me so buying a house was nothing.
“I couldn’t bear the fact that someone would come in and treat my mum like a second-class citizen.”
http://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/great-british-bake-winner-nadiya-8626482
It was probably something very small.
But that isn't the point is it Tommy. You are vile enough to want to discredit her because she is Muslim and will clutch at any straw to do it. You are despicable.

It was probably something very small.
But that isn't the point is it Tommy. You are vile enough to want to discredit her because she is Muslim and will clutch at any straw to do it. You are despicable.

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
I thought Nadia was lovely on GBB...when she won, her husband and family appeared on the programme and they seemed like a lovely, ordinary, respectful humble family.
It's horrible to think people can abuse her and her family simply because she is Muslim....fact is she is just like you and I.
I love the reason she gives for starting to wear the head covering.....nothing sinister or forced in her decision, just a quick and easy answer to bad hair days.

Her husband and children were so happy for her and he obviously gives her so much support. It was lovely to see.
Well, I'm off, so night night, sleep well.

I so enjoyed what, he { the husband} gave her such kudo's for doing what she dies and keeping the house running smoothly at the same time - he was rather stressed during her absence doing the show!

Then wouldn't you ...Yes, 'YOU THE GRAND MASTER DEBATER' ...be better served with taking your hyped up angest directly to the MEDIA SOURCE, rather than derailing the topic just as you normally do!
Sassy, didn't write this article ...but brought it in here for an interesting/adult discussion
BTW - I could probably count on ONE HAND the members you've NOT called JEW HATERS ...as you seem to label everyone that doesn't swallow your vile/bile that you push daily about Israel
That's how BORINGLY redundant your topics are ...and why you are now trolling Sassy's
Sweet Jesus ...you and your Me-Me ruin loads of nice topics ...and for what purpose.
I am sure you can count on one hand how many times I have called sassy a Jew hater, when she is again as racist as it comes when she denies jews being semtic and thus claiming that the holocaust was not due to antisemitism.
You see I reasoned this to ytou before and can offer up other examples where sassy denies Jews their semtic and Jewish identity. Where she has tried to deny them this identity on numeroeus occasions. Only people who hate Israel and Jews ever argue this to deny people the right to live in a land.
This is why you ran away each time I explained this to you and will no doubt again fail to answer the above
Now again fdor those as slow as you are my point is on one aspect
The guardian writes an article on her and racism, without anything on the racism, as if this is used to entice people to read this
Others actually go on about the racism in their news reports
So what you just said above proves again you are being about as immature as you always are and failing to understand the points
So try again
Which is like I said, they never made any views on this and just threw this in the headline to sell the story.
I never said I denied her claims, only that the headline is a farce, as it does not go into detail on the racism.
You do understand that?
They have basically tried to intice people to read this based off racism, when it plays next to nothing within the article[/quote]

I agree she was great on the show
Now the aspect on wearing the hijab about her hair i do not believe as it maks no sense, as was her hair daily bad?
There is a easy way to spot when something does not hold or ring true, as why continue to wear something, if you do not have to and its based on how that hair can grow back over time?
That says to me, there is another reason, as the one offered would only explain and be in reagrds to one aspect in her life and was no doubt forced to wear and is making excuses for her family Syl.
If she is not being honest about that, where then is she being honst on everything else?

Staggering, as how again at 19 could she afford to buy this house for her parents?
Or did this have something to do with the fact she was basically sold off into marriage by hr parents?
You do realise she was forced into marriage at 19?
Even though she claims to have fallen in love together later.
Was it more like the house was part of the deal of her marriage by the other family?
As that would crtainly make more sense iher parents having a place bought for them.
You see, the more you investigate the more things are not being told honestly here
She is forced into marriage at 19
Parents get a house at the same age she is 19
That is an arranged marriage by the parents she is forced into
(another reason why I do not buy the hijab story and having a bad hair day)

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
Of course its not the first time she has ben caught out telling porkies
Seems to me like she is an attention seeker:
Seems to me like she is an attention seeker:
Nadiya had said: “There were no chairs back in Bangladesh and Dad wanted to keep the tradition, so we never owned a dining table.”
She also stated: “The concept of dessert doesn’t exist in Bangladeshi cuisine… I have a senseless love affair with cheese. My mother never bought any because there was none in Bangladeshi cuisine.”
Her comments were met with criticism on social media, with some claiming they were misleading.
One wrote on Facebook: “There’s definitely chairs in Bangladesh, as well as desserts and our local cheese which we call poneer. This woman is definitely no Bangladeshi role model and doesn’t know what the hell she’s talking about.”
Another said: “Shame on you #Nadiya. Before talking about Bangladesh you should do a little research about its cuisine. Bangladesh does have varieties of dessert and yes of course people do have dining chairs to sit on.”
“Her statements are very generalised - Bangladeshi’s do have desserts such as doi, firni, various mishti and we do have our own deshi cheese too,” a further user added.

Nadiya Hussain, the winner of last year’s Great British Bake Off, says that racist abuse has become an everyday part of her life.
Speaking on Sunday’s Desert Island Discs on BBC Radio 4, Hussain said she is astounded at being credited for her positive effect on race relations with the Muslim community as she described the anti-Islamic abuse she still suffers.
“It sounds really silly [but] it feels like that’s become a part of my life now– I expect it,” she said. “I expect to be shoved or pushed or verbally abused, because it happens, it’s happened for years.”
The 31-year-old said the abuse has made her even more determined to be a role model to her three children and the wider Muslim community.
Hussain said: “I love being British and I love living here, this is my home and it always will be regardless of all the other things that define me. This is my home and I want my kids to be proud of that and I don’t want them to grow up with a chip on their shoulder, so I live as positively as I can.”
During her 10 years as a stay-at-home mother, Hussain said she “got so bogged down in being the best housewife” that she began losing herself, trapped in a bubble where she only spoke to close family and feared strangers’ judgment.
“I couldn’t get on a bus with them [her two eldest children] because I was so afraid of people looking at me, or people thinking I looked horrible, or people judging me and how could she possibly have two children in that space of time?” she said.
Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
1) Is a claim, not evidence.
2) That credits herefor pu;lic relations previously on this and is again not specific on the reacism
3) Expect is not actual receiving racism, but paranoia in the mind
4) Claim again, no examples
5) Chip on their should could refer to religious bias, not racism,
6) Same as 5
7) That again could be anything as she wears a hijab, which judge on relikgion, which is not racism
That is definately not racism, but religious dresss she is referring too and is paranoia again
So not a single example of any actual racism and is clear she thinks racism is anti-Muslims hate when they are often very seperate
No wonder you are a sports writer and at the bottom of the journalism world

Re: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain says racist abuse is part of her everyday life
Mih mih Ben mimimih mimih mimimih mih mih.
The whole first half of the article talks about her dealing with racism. It would be journalistic malpractice for the headline not to reflect that.
She doesn't go into enough specifics? Maybe she didn't feel like it. Not everybody wants to tell the news media about the most humiliating experiences of their lives.
