Recorded Tuesday 5th March 2024 2pm UK / 3pm CET
Professor Anthony Reddie, Professor of Black Theology and Director of the Oxford Centre for Religion and Culture, Regent’s Park College, University of Oxford.

Anthony’s research Interest has been the interface between Black theology and decolonial/transformative education. He is the author of numerous books, articles, and book chapters. Anthony is rooted in the Methodist tradition both as a scholar and a Methodist Local Preacher.

His most recent book, Deconstructing Whiteness, Empire and Mission (SCM Press, 2023), explores Christian Mission and its history, and the ways in which this legacy has unleashed notions of White supremacy, systemic racism and global capitalism on the world. Contributors to the book reflect on the past and consider the future of world mission in an age of renewed understandings of empire and its impact.

Professor Anthony Reddie is a recipient of the Archbishop of Canterbury’s 2020 Lanfranc Award for ‘exceptional and sustained contribution to Black theology In Britain and beyond.’

Faith in Europe is an educational charity that originated in concern for religious freedom in totalitarian regimes. With a faith perspective, it now focuses on political, social, and cultural issues in the European continent. It holds briefing meetings four times a year, which invite keynote speakers to introduce a specific topic of current concern, followed by questions and breakout discussions. Briefings are well prepared presentations that explore topics at considerable depth.
