Summary
 A no-holds-barred memoir and outspoken manifesto from Senator, role model, and modern Australian hero Mehreen Faruqi.

Too Migrant, Too Muslim, Too Loud is a no-holds-barred memoir and manifesto from outspoken senator, trouble¬maker and multicultural icon Mehreen Faruqi. As the first Muslim woman in any Australian parliament, Mehreen has a unique and crucial perspective on our politics and democracy. It is a tale of a political outsider fighting for her right and the rights of others like her to be let inside on their terms. From her beginnings in Pakistan and remaking in Australia, Mehreen recounts her struggle to navigate two vastly differ¬ent, changing worlds without losing herself. This moving and inspiring memoir shares shattering insights learned as a migrant, an engineer, an activist, a feminist and a politician.

Such an important book! Part memoir and lots of reflections on recent politics in Australia. So good to hear Mehreen Faruqi narrate her story herself. Highly recommended.

A must-listen (or read) for all Australians

this book blew my mind. I thought I was doing well as social justice advocate , but turns out I have a lot more to learn and do.

There’s no fence sitting in this book, no attempt to sugar coat experiences of racism, no toned down observations of corruption and misogyny in politics, and no skimming the surface when speaking about the mistreatment of animals and the environment for the corporate dime.

A migrant Muslim who happens to be an academic, engineer, climate activist, environmentalist, feminist, LGBQTI ally, a senator, a family oriented mum who speaks with gratitude and respect about her family & friends, I’d say she’s quite remarkable.

Absolutely enjoyed this memoir. Provocative, honest and relatable.

Mehreen cuts through the BS and gets to the heart.

This is engaging story of establishing life in Australia as a Muslim woman of colour with strong convictions and an unwillingness to compromise on injustices.

The challenges, the heart aches, and triumphs of a trail blazing journey into an unforgiving political world.

Australia is lucky to have her.

I hope politicians are reading this and taking notes
