Bishop Libby Lane is Britain’s first woman bishop in the Church of England. In this talk - Me and My Beliefs: Challenges of Identity and Society - Bishop Libby explores the pathway that brought her to this position and addresses an area of identity not always covered in diversity debates. A panel of prominent speakers joins her in discussing what it means to be a person of faith in Britain today and impacts on diversity.
On the panel:
Jas' Elsner (Professor of Late Antique Art, Faculty of Classics, University of Oxford and project lead on Empires of Faith). Shaista Aziz (freelance journalist and writer. Founder of The Everyday Bigotry Project).
This event was chaired by Elleke Boehmer (Professor in World Literatures in English, University of Oxford)
