Roy Jenkins looks back at some of the subjects which have featured in All Things Considered during 2020. This year, many editions of the programme have reacted to the Covid epidemic, exploring how people have dealt with this crisis in the light of their faith, how they’ve approached fear and suffering, how faith communities have coped with restrictions on worship, handled funerals, managed not to sing together, addressed need around them and used innovative means of spreading their message…and much more. But for this review, Roy steers clear of Covid 19 - and Brexit - to look at some of the other subjects which have been covered in a year which would be momentous even without the epidemic. Subjects revisited range from the toppling of statues in Bristol and the impact of Black Lives Matter to the role of evanglical christians in US politics, taking in an interview with the nun and anti-death penalty campaigner Helen Prejean and interviews with the singer-songwriters Graham Kendrick and Martyn Joseph, in a year which began with a commemmoration of the centenary of the disestablishment of the Church in Wales.
