“Whiteness is a claim to power, it’s a claim to rightness, it’s a racialised claim and there is no such thing as being white and being a Christian, you have to resist that identity.” (A.D.A. France-Williams, 2020)

“White English Christianity must commit to a radical and ruthless critique of its Whiteness”. (A. Reddie, 2020)
