About ExMuslim TV
ExMuslim TV is a humanitarian short-video platform. We put a spotlight on those facing imminent danger and provide a safe space for any ex-Muslim to speak up.
Our primary mission is to bring forward former and questioning Muslims who are finding themselves in life-threatening situations. A network of international NGOs, lawyers, journalists and activists may then come in support and eventually help resolve the situation.
We also offer a platform for any ex-Muslim to share his or her experience, hopes and concerns. Anonymous or not, our voices inspire courage to those not in a position to speak their mind.
We stand for civil liberties, equality of rights and strongly against anti-Muslim hate.
Support Our Work
We only rely on public support to sustain our work and efforts.
