Pretty Girls Like Trap Church: A Movement at 2 Chainz’s Atlanta Pink House

…subgenre of rap originating in the South, with Atlanta arguably being its central hub. To others, it was an art gallery, housing local artists’ depictions of other groundbreaking rappers such as Tupac and André 3000. To some, it was a free HIV testing site, as 2 Chainz opened a temporary STD clinic in the house over Fourth of July weekend. But for Pastor Michael Wortham of Historic Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, it became the home of “trap c…

The Belly of the Beast: NYC’s Shiny New Transit Hub Is All Wrong for the 9/11 Site

…he dead illustrate poignant principles for the living, but the World Trade Center Transportation Hub’s architectural centerpiece, named the “Oculus,” is an unsightly and inappropriate monument. The space is part of the newly-constructed campus—the WTC Hub—that has been in development since the attack that destroyed the World Trade Center in 2001. But what the Oculus brings to the memorial area bears no emotional awareness of the attack at all. The…

Papal Retirement: A Matter of Conscience

…o take over. I applaud his move and read it as a sign of hope in a dreary ecclesial scene. Speculation about his health is rampant. As with many elders whose offspring plot to take away the car keys, I suspect there was some backdoor lobbying to make this retirement happen. But I dare to hope that it was at least in part the considered judgment of an octogenarian who saw his predecessor propped up long after his prime and did not want the same for…

Sheldon Adelson’s Long Game

…can read a poll just as easily as anyone else. Or last year’s Pew Research Center survey on American Jewish attitudes. His money isn’t about 2016 or even 2020 or 2024, it’s about staving off the shifting views of American Jews about Israel, or at least constraining political dialogue about it. Citizens United enabled Adelson to pour as much of his money as he wants into influencing elections, but that’s really a misnomer. He’s not influencing the…

…ated image came with the disclosure in the summer of 2004 that his public relations and lobbying companies had received at least $4.2 million from Abramoff to mobilize Christian voters to fight Indian casinos competing with Abramoff’s casino clients. Similarly damaging has been a torrent of e-mails revealed during the investigation that shows a side of Reed that some former supporters say cannot be reconciled with his professed Christian values. “…

Electionpocalypse, Part II: The Mythical Jewish Vote

…by name (and aided in this regard by Gray), pulling a conservative tactic, claiming that conservative activist Grover Norquist has ties to terrorists. (Norquist’s wife is Palestinian-American.) And we are supposed to conclude what from this? That Jewish Democrats can engage in Islamophobic guilt-by-association tactics as well as Republicans? This was a clumsy attempt at pushback against Republican charges that Obama is insufficiently “pro-Israel.”…

Updated: Dr. Oz Thinks Anti-Muslim’s Sugar-Daddy Sheldon Adelson is “Not So Bad”

…t learn about one of the most shocking and extreme iterations of military occupation and settler domination during his visit. He did not meet with local Palestinians to hear about their hardships under occupation, or even take a tour with an Israeli groups like Breaking the Silence, that try and shine light on the situation there. No, Dr. Oz went on a tour hosted by the settler community in Hebron…. The same settler community that maintains a shri…

Should Evangelical Trump Critics Leave The Movement? Who Cares?

…erally a reliable guide to the world of white Evangelicals. However, his recent piece in The Atlantic on whether anti-Trump Evangelicals should leave the movement suffers from a couple of big problems. Merritt begins by pointing to the case of Jimmy Carter, who has not-really disassociated himself from the Southern Baptist Convention over its positions on women in ministry, acceptance of gays and lesbians, and other issues. “Not-really” because SB…
