While Judaism is proportionately the most persecuted global faith, Christianity is by far the most oppressed numerically. One in seven Christians worldwide – around 300 million people – are under threat, including one in five in Africa. Yet we hear all too little about this rising tide of ‘Christianophobia’.

Christians are still widely assumed to be disproportionately white, western or privileged – and thus somehow less vulnerable to oppression

Christians are even at risk in the West.
