Examining Quaker privilege and commitment to an equal world
"The roots of racial prejudice lie deep within us, and in seeking a solution to the evil results of racial tensions we need to search our own hearts. Our belief in the significance of every individual in the sight of God and their need for an abundant life can guide us even when we shrink before the vastness of the problem." – London Yearly Meeting 1952

The system isn't broken – it was built this way
Last weekend marked a turning point in British race relations. The controversial statue of Edward Colston was dumped in Bristol harbour, finally toppled at a Black Lives Matter demonstration. It was met with scorn from British newspapers, citing the age and expense of the statue as reasons for it to be reinstated, which reflects a deeper concern for property than for the oppression of black people in Britain.

A response to Black Lives Matter by a BGM* Quaker
Black Lives Matter is no longer a black issue. We've asked. We've told. We've marched. It's up to non-black people to respond.

Connection, belonging and meaning in lockdown
Reflecting on this past twelve months, none of us can claim that people of faith or faith communities have done more or differently than anyone else. All of us, of every faith and none, have longed for connection. We've joined with others and served our neighbours and our communities. We've lost loved ones. We've grieved for our own lost hopes. We've fretted and wept through the long night, and struggled to find the will to get up in the morning and begin the new day. We've held in our grief like a caught breath, waiting to weep. The spaces between us feel filled with ghosts and memories and things lost.

Hope – the message of worldwide prayer
World Day of Prayer 2022 falls on 4 March. It aims to bring together women of various races, cultures and traditions in closer understanding. Each year a different country is selected to write the liturgy for a worldwide day of prayer and England, Wales and Northern Ireland had been chosen for 2022; the first time since 1945. WDP is an international ecumenical women's movement which began in the USA in 1887 and is celebrated annually in over 150 countries.

From policy to practice: safeguarding the most vulnerable
It only seems a moment ago that I was confined during lockdown and working on the York Area Meeting safeguarding policy. But time goes on quickly and I see from my notes that it has been three years. This short article is an account of my personal journey with safeguarding and that of my team. I will try to provide a pen portrait of what we have learnt, what we have achieved and *spoiler alert* why I'm proud of it.

Why I am still a pacifist
I became General Secretary of the Friends World Committee for Consultation in January of 2022, a role of service to the world's 400,000 or so Quakers, who collectively comprise one of the world's traditional peace churches.

Strengthening children’s rights: UNCRC bill secures Royal Assent in Scotland
In a success for children's rights in Scotland, the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) (Incorporation) (Scotland) Bill officially received Royal Assent on 16 January 2024 and will come into force on 16 July 2024. This is a significant milestone in the journey towards ensuring the wellbeing of every child in the nation, and builds on years of advocacy by organisations including Quakers in Scotland and our coalition partners Together (the Scottish Alliance for Children's Rights).

Informed prayer, prayerful action: a call from Palestinian Christians
The theme and service this year comes from Palestinian Christian women living in Palestine. We are all encouraged to pray for peace, justice and freedom of religion and movement. They ask us to pray especially for women, refugees, the sick, dying and grieving in their country, and also beyond.

Reparations reflections: reading into the silence
In this series of posts, we share the readings, and reflections, from the opening worship of regular meetings of the Reparations Working Group. This group of British Quakers has been appointed to take forward the commitment minuted by Britain Yearly Meeting in 2022 to consider financial and other reparations for the role of Quakers in the transatlantic chattel slave trade. You can find out more about this decision, and the actions which have flowed from it, on our reparations page.
