Overview

• The Church of England has accepted a report recommending £1 billion in reparations for its historic links to the slave trade.
• The reparations aim to address the centuries-long impact of slavery and include apologies for the Church's past actions.
• Critics, including some within the Church, have labeled the move as 'anti-Christian' and a 'death wish' for the institution.
• Black faith leaders argue that even £1 billion may not be sufficient to fully address the legacy of slavery.
• The reparations initiative is part of a broader effort by the Church to confront its historical injustices.
