Racism in the church – People of Color battle for representation | DW Documentary
From DW Documentary.
Watch this video on YouTube ↗
Racism has many faces, even within the Christian faith. Those affected cite workplace discrimination; People of Color are underrepresented in senior positions. Can prejudice be overcome?
For a long time, Christian church campaigns mostly portrayed people from the Global South as people in need of aid. That's set to change: People of Color are calling for a greater say and stronger representation on church bodies. The church is responding - yet racist attitudes and hostility persist.
For pastor Égide Muziazia, discriminatory insults forced him out of public life - but also fostered greater solidarity within the Catholic Diocese of Münster.
Sarah Vecera works for an international communion of Protestant churches. She writes, hosts her own podcast and runs anti-racism workshops. Nicolas Moumouni is an advisor on intercultural development for the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Northern Germany, and Father Uchenna Aba from Goch-Kessel in North Rhine-Westphalia draws upon his African heritage in his work as a Catholic chaplain.
