In this episode, Research Fellow Revd Dr Carlton Turner - tutor in Contextual Theology and Mission Studies, as well as Deputy Director of Research, at the Queen's Foundation, Birmingham - discusses his project exploring how psychological research can deepen the Church of England’s theological discussions and practices on racism, particularly for the flourishing of UK Minority Ethnic (UKME) and Global Majority Heritage (GMH) individuals. Drawing on text-based analysis of CofE literature and psychological theories like Minority Stress Theory and Social Threat Theory, alongside stakeholder interviews and documentary research in selected dioceses, Carlton examines the psychological grounding of theological conversations on racism in individual and collective forms.
