An Open Letter to Black Clergy on the Disdain for Protest

By Rev. Osagyefo Sekou

…egations in the palm of your hand with rhetorical flourishes, giving a beat-down-people strength to live another day. Your words helped to re-constitute an assaulted black self—with respectability, dignity and self-determination. I studied how you mounted the sacred desk. The way that you ‘took and walked’ a text was a dissertation in performance and homiletical studies. I took avid notes. Elegant mothers wearing peacock hats; disciplined ushers,…

‘Pro-Life’ Theater, Open White Nationalism, and Virility Fear — Day 3 of NatCon

By Annika Brockschmidt and Ben Lorber

…anding ovations at the conference. Declaring that “the regime today is anti-White anti-male and anti-Christian,” Azerrad condemned the “browning of America,” the “intentional demographic transformation of America into a majority-minority country through large scale immigration.” Taking more talking points directly from White nationalist organizations like VDARE—a group he cited—he mused: “who knows when Whites will be reduced into a minority in Am…

Chick-fil-A Has a Right to Open Crappy Sandwich Shop in Chicago

By Sarah Posner

…icago—including Mayor Rahm Emanuel—and other cities should try to bar Chick-Fil-A from opening new restaurants. Chick-Fil-A “disrespects us,” says Emanuel, because “Chick-fil-A values are not Chicago values.” Can I say that I hate—almost as much as a chicken sandwich—when Democrats try to throw that “values” language back in the face of conservatives. Conservatives don’t own the “values” conversation—we know, we know! (I think Rahm is having a 200…

An Open Letter To American Muslims on Same-Sex Marriage

By Reza Aslan and Hasan Minhaj

…doesn’t disqualify you from also being a Muslim. But privately, you still feel like the LGBT community is a living contradiction to what you were brought up to believe. But here’s the thing. When you are an underrepresented minority—whether Muslim, African American, female, etc.—democracy is an all or nothing business. You fight for everyone’s rights (and the operative word here is “fight”), or you get none for yourself. Democracy isn’t a buffet….

HuffPo Columnist Tries to Link Darwin to Hitler

By Lauri Lebo

…tly, Huffington Post’s living pages have long been filled with various anti-science sentiments and new age woo, from vitamin cures to the “science of distant healing.” Most egregiously, it has provided a place for Jenny McCarthy and others to peddle ongoing claims about there being a link between autism and vaccine shots. Of course, such claims are patently false. There has not been one single scientifically linked case of vaccines to autism. Mean…

Arcade Fire and the Suburban Soul

By Paul Harvey

…de of dreams and terrors, both public and private, uncontainable within cul-de-sacs. This theme, running throughout The Suburbs, was foreshadowed on the track “Rebellion (Lies)” from 2004’s Funeral, where the desire to hide your light “underneath the covers” meets the exhortation “Now here’s the sun/It’s alright,” and the response chant: “Lies. Lies.” These kinds of inner dialogues continue on the latest album: These days my life, I feel it has no…

The Real Reason For “Vagina-gate”

By Jerry Faught

…to stock popular young evangelical blogger and writer Rachel Held Evans’ latest book, A Year of Biblical Womanhood. Although Evans was told by her publisher that the word “vagina” would likely keep her books out of Lifeway’s stores, it is another word that better explains the ban: “fundamentalism.” The leaders of the Southern Baptist Convention are, across the board, hidebound fundamentalists who try to pass themselves off as conservatives. Unlik…

Pricking the Conscience of Churches: From AIDS Activism to Ending World Hunger

By Susan Henking

…ed Methodist Global AIDS Fund and their campaign, “20/20: Visioning an AIDS-Free World,” his reflections both inspire us and remind us, thirty years into this pandemic, how much more there is to be done. Susan Henking: I know that your career has, in part, been defined by concern for world hunger and, then, in more recent decades, with the global impact of AIDS/HIV. What drew you to these concerns? Donald Messer: In 1961, I journeyed from the pra…

The ‘Fake Christian’ Deflection and Contrarian Concern Trolling: How Not to Write about Evangelical Authoritarianism

By Chrissy Stroop

…his anecdotal observations that, regardless of their size, “a focus on one-on-one ministry and a commitment to local communities” are what have helped churches weather the pandemic. However, Hinch fails to shore up his larger argument when he points to the famous Saddleback megachurch’s model of using “small fellowship groups” to “provide the kind of personal contact and accountability otherwise lacking in large, anonymous megachurch services” as…

Why Has the Critique of Hypocrisy Run Out of Steam?

By Christopher Douglas

…uestioning the premise of what was called, in another context, “the reality-based community.” The critique of hypocrisy has run out of steam for a similar reason. The higher and shared moral principles on which the critique of hypocrisy rests are wielded by bad faith actors who do not themselves share the principles. Like knowledge and facts themselves in our post-truth era, moral principles derive from group identity. For many conservatives, know…
