Professor Satvinder Juss featured in a special edition of Beyond Belief on BBC Radio 4, exploring the influence of religion on lawmaking in the UK. Professor Juss shared his experience as a turban-wearing barrister in the UK. Listen on BBC Sounds ⬇️ www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
Professor Satvinder Juss wearing a turban with a smile on his face. The quote reads:

Even in a profession as conservative as the law, no judge, no barrister [has] remarked on the turban. About a handful of us even now 
at the bar wear turbans... 
We decided that we would wear 
white turbans in court and when 
we come out, we will wear our 
black turbans. 
Professor Satvinder Juss,
Professor of Law.
