Listen again: Podcast Episode 7

We are releasing a new podcast every fortnight. This week, listen again to last week’s special: Black Lives Matter.

In this episode Bishop Rachel enters into conversation with four Christians who are black, in the Diocese of Gloucester – Rumbi, Ade, Simi and Suki – two adults and two young people, about the impact of Covid-19, the murder of George Floyd and our failures as a Church regarding racial justice.
