Fadew is a British liberal and secular quarterly magazine.[3][4][5] The publication is operated from London, England.[6][5] Fadew is published from Bradford[7] with the subtitle: Stories that matter.[8][9][10] The Council for Secular Humanism has called Fadew a "fast-growing collection of contemporary free thinkers." The group has worked with international NGOs, such as the Center for Inquiry.[5]

History[edit]

The publication initially started as an online blogging platform titled Fadewblogs.[11][12][13] It was founded in 2017 by Shoaib Rahman, who is the current CEO.[14][15][16][17] The publication was rebranded as Fadew; performing as a printed magazine in February 2022.[18][19] Rahman is the current editor of the magazine.[20][21][22]

Content type[edit]

Fadew publishes articles mainly relating to theology, liberalism, free-thinking, and atheism.[23][24][5] The magazine advocates free expression and criticises religious fundamentalism. The articles on theology are written from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, including religious studies, philosophy, sociology, and classics.[25] The magazine also discusses LGBTQ+ issues.[6][5] The website of the magazine performs as a publishing platform, and focuses on being one where people's muzzled words get spoken.[3]

Reception[edit]

According to Steve Kuno of the Free Inquiry Journal, Fedew is one of the many websites that has always "spoken out for equality."[26] Ahmet T. Kuru of The Truth Seeker magazine criticised the publication, saying "some of the authors of this website always avoid certain religions, which indicates their fear of extremism."[27] Atheist Alliance International (AAI) labeled Fadew as "the complete opposite of conservative site Caldron Pool."[5] Sarah Ditum of The Times criticised several British atheism related publishing platforms and blogs, including Fadew writing, "Despite their [the authors'] attempts at portraying themselves as cool and rational freethinkers, they miserably fail and end up looking like purveyors of bigotry, which ironically they denounce."[28]

Content reader platform Feedspot included the magazine's blog in their list of Top 10 UK Atheist Blogs and Websites.[29]

Threats[edit]

In January 2021, an anonymous blogger of the platform, who used the alias of Eera, faced threats from fundamentalists for criticising certain religions and supporting minorities of South Asian countries in a series of blog posts and videos published since July 2020.[30] The articles have since been removed from the platform, which was met with criticism.[27]
