A Public Webinar hosted by the National Justice and Peace Network (NJPN)

From Lived Experience to Collective Action

Guest Speakers: 

Dr. Beverley Prevatt Goldstein: Distinguished academic, community activist, and pioneering advocate for racial equality in the North East of England. Born in Trinidad, she made history in 1968 as one of the first Black women to enroll at Oxford University from a mainstream British school before pursuing a prolific career in social work and education. She is the former chair of the North East of England African Community Association (NEEACA) and her lifelong commitment to anti-racism was honoured with an honorary doctorate from Northumbria University.

 Richard Reddie: Prominent British author, researcher, and broadcaster specializing in racial justice and the intersection of faith and culture. He serves as the Director of Justice and Inclusion at Churches Together in Britain and Ireland (CTBI), where he oversees initiatives related to racial justice, migration, and refugees. He is a frequent commentator on the legacy of the Windrush generation and the murder of Stephen Lawrence, often advocating for the Church to act as a “prophetic voice” in the public square.

Why this webinar?

Racism in England remains a real and ongoing injustice.
Despite strong equality laws, evidence shows that racism continues to shape lives through:

• Racially motivated hate crime
• Discrimination in employment, education, housing, and healthcare
• Disproportionate policing and criminal justice outcomes
• Hostility linked to migration debates and global events

Racism today is often subtle, denied, or minimised — but its impact is real.

This webinar creates space to name the reality of racism, reflect on its roots and consequences, and explore how we can act together for justice.
