ABOUT ME:
Hello and welcome! I'm a Sociologist at the University of Warwick, UK where I explore social issues and find ways for people to resist, heal and flourish.

My publications and other creative projects are on my website https://williambarylo.com . To get in touch, email me at hello@williambarylo.com

This channel will NOT be monetized so:
1. I can have creative freedom and

Muslims in the Neoliberal Empire is my latest book published with Oxford University Press. It is about how the society colonises us and what we can do about it. Don’t buy it, it’s really expensive! (I don’t make much money out of it anyway). Check out the contents here: https://mne.williambarylo.com/
