Other than White in a British Context
As the fallout from the “Trojan Horse” affair continues to cause concerns in Birmingham, I use two theo-ethical resources with which to examine the reports by Clarke and Kershaw. I find the reports issued by the aforementioned to be deeply flawed. In the first instance, I utilize Black theology, as a Black theological methodology undergirds everything I write. Starting from the Bible, particularly the two Dominical Commandments, I posit that we m…

A Tale of Two Cities
Drawing on my experience in two urban parishes, one predominantly White and the other Black, I seek to show how it is legitimate that we interrogate our present age through the lens of faith. I argue that by its experience of being forced into difference, the Black church has much to offer the White church, especially as the former in cities is growing, unlike the latter. Black-driven mission must be a challenging concept for the White-led domina…

Faithful Cities and their Theology of Context
This article looks at the ecumenical Church report, Faithful Cities, and seeks to place it in a continuum that includes both the sequence of reports the British churches have issued over the years together with the shifting attitudes of politicians, institutions and groups of people at street level. Faithful Cities discusses the economics of happiness but fails to address the often brutally tangible experience of racism and its associated fear an…
Black Anglicans in Focus
This article is concerned with an analysis of three focus groups which were set up to explore the relationship between the African-Caribbean community in the UK and the Church of England. The focus groups were designed to find out how Black Anglicans think and feel about issues relevant to their mode of involvement in the Church of England, and to discover something about the frame of reference within which members of the focus groups interact wi…
Black Clergy Discontent
This article offers an interpretation of a set of findings from a sample of Black clergy who, through the process of selective interviews, communicated their experiences in the Church of England. They said that the Church was maintaining a presence for Christian witness in the cities and urban areas of deprivation in a way which was perceived by these communities as relevant. The majority of clergy felt that it was important to provide Black wors…
B lack T heology in U rban S hadow
Church reports, Faith in the City (1985), Seeds of Hope (1991), Staying in the City (1995), and The Passing Winter (1996) are examined and assessed as being not so much about challenging racism as about exoneration for senior office holders who abdicate any individual responsibility. It is argued that the term ‘institutionalized racism’ is used by those who embrace a self-conscious Englishness to avoid the very issues upon which such a concept sh…
