S14 E6 The One About Decolonising the New Testament

  • Please send The RE Podcast a Text Message!

    To continue on our theme of making our schools and curriculum representative and inclusive, I speak to Dr U-wen Low from the University of Birmingham about how to read the stories in the new Testament without a colonial lens. We focus in this episode on Jesus and Phliemonand will do a further episode on the book of revelation.

    The episode is going to take a hermeneutical look at specific texts and how they can be interpretted to either be pro or against colonisation and sometimes both. But don't worry, this isn't heavy and complicated. U-wen has a brilliant way of making things simple and accessible.

    We focus our converstation on Mary's magnificat, the Great Commission, views on the Romans, the story of Zaccheaus and the letter of Philemon (with it's nuanced take on slavery).

    It's a brilliant episode that I think will make you look at familiar stories in a new way which is something we love as RE teachers!
