Like the rest of the world, Rwanda has been hit by the Covid-19 pandemic; our economy especially has suffered a lot. Life has become difficult for everyone, including for the members of the Evangelical Friends Church Rwanda (EEAR).

How a fair tax system could help us Build Back Better
Sunday 14 June is Tax Justice Sunday: a day when Christians are encouraged to come together to reflect on the role of tax in society, and to speak out for a fairer tax system. This year it comes as many in the churches and in wider society are calling for tax reform to be part of how we build back better from the Covid-19 pandemic.

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.

The UK must end indefinite immigration detention
Despite the welcome release of many detainees in response to the Covid-19 crisis, the UK's immigration detention system remains unfit for purpose. The UK remains the only country in Europe where detainees can be held indefinitely. This violates basic principles of justice and human rights while avoiding proper transparency and judicial oversight. Anyone with 'irregular status' can be detained – new arrivals, people with no papers or 'wrong passports', and overstayers. Tens of thousands of people are being locked up every year – without any idea of when they might be released.

How Quakers are championing democracy
Quakers are known for their witness: living out their faith through action. Sometimes this action takes the form of campaigning and protesting. Our freedom to do these things is being threatened, but Quakers in Britain and other concerned groups are working together to do something about it.

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

Are you ready for 2021?
Are you ready for 2021, or are you still reeling from 2020? The pandemic, like a powerful lens, has shown up more clearly many of the challenges we already knew we faced – both inside our Quaker community and in the world around us. In this blog I want to take a look at some of those challenges, and consider the questions we need to ask ourselves in order to meet them.

Justice around the world: building back better for all
“To be hopeful in bad times is not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness." ― Howard Zinn, A Power Governments Cannot Suppress, 2007
