Members of MJR will be running a short introductory course on the Legacy of Slavery as part of the annual Manchester Bible School in Manchester in the Autumn. This will be an excellent opportunity to learn more about and discuss a vital justice issue that should be of concern to all Christians. The course will explore how both colonial slavery and industrial exploitation have left their mark on British society and culture and continue to influence the mindset and behaviour of people in deprived areas.
The school is hosted by the Nazarene Theological College where MJR is in the process of establishing a Study Centre. The course will run on five Monday evenings from 14 September to 12 October and will cost £30 (£20 unwaged). Those taking part from MJR are Clifford Hill, Khareem Jamal, Alton Bell, Derek Purnell and Paul Keeble. For more information and to book a place go here.
