Church Times review of new book
The Church of England, Faith in the City and Racial Justice: addressing growing social polarisation
Guy Hewitt
In this Temple Tract, Guy Hewitt, the inaugural director of racial justice in the Church of England, reflects on a roundtable on Faith in the City 40 Years On, organised by the William Temple Foundation.
He produced and submitted this piece to affirm the continued relevance of the thinking of William Temple and the seminal role of Faith in the City in speaking to matters of race and racial justice. More importantly, however, it foretells the adverse consequences that the neoliberal dictum of individual responsibility could have for society, particularly exacerbating polarisation and division in our nation. This Tract was written in the hope that it advances the discourse on the role of the Church in society and the legacy of Faith in the City in helping to address the growing polarisation particularly around issues of belonging, inclusion, and racial injustice.
