Church of many colours

 

Display re Ethnic Minorities, Leeds

The often untold story of the achievement of people from ethnic minorities in the Church of England was celebrated at St Aidan’s Church, Leeds this autumn.

It was one of a series of educational and celebration events around the country, initiated by the diocese and supported by the Committee for Minority Ethnic Anglican Concerns to mark Black History Month and Racial Justice Sunday.

Over 200 people gathered at St Aidan’s for a day of workshops, food, music and worship – the centrepiece, a display focused on the participation in the church and wider British history in the last three centuries.

The Committee for Minority Ethnic Anglican Concerns offers a year-round resource for materials and information for a plethora of initiatives, ranging from a visual presentation focusing on the history of justice for minority ethnic people in Britain to student projects on youth race relations.
