Reddie (Queen's Foundation for Ecumenical Theological Education) is a consultant in Black theological studies for the British Methodist Church. Here he reaffirms the radical intent and practice of Black theology by offering a new model of and methodological approach for studying it. It combines participative methodologies of Christian education and discipleship with Black constructive and systematic theologies. His topics include defending Black theology from homogeneity, Jesus as a Black hero, violence against Black people, suffering and theodicy, and reflections of a practical Black British liberation theologian on HIV/AIDS and Black communities in Britain.
