I see nothing in any of the links that still work to say they exclude anyone from any background.

How many White vicars working in Black [majority] churches? They wouldn't even bother applying.

That doesn't mean that the churches would exclude them if they did, and I wouldn't agree if they did purely on the basis of race either.

There's even a Council of Black Led Churches.

Again not an indication of exclusion, but a co-ordination of a minority element of society to increase their voice

The idea for a Council of Black Led Churches came about after the riots in Birmingham in the 1980's. It began in 1988 as the Black Led Churches Liaison Committee, BLCLC. This was initiated to respond to the need for black churches to be more united and to be represented in places of influence. Its aims were to improve the education, health and employment opportunities for the black community.

Many other minorities in the UK will co-ordinate through similar umbrella groups to speak with 'one voice' on issues that affect them.
