…ight voters with the right issues” coming to the polls this election and in 2024. After 2020 Republican losses in Georgia, it’s telling that the Family Research Council brought the conference to Atlanta.

By Seth Sanders

…able? If it is true, as Marc Tracy writes in the New York Times, that “[i]n 2024, anti-Zionism is the closest thing organized Judaism has to heresy,” then for most of Jewish history it may have been closer to the opposite. For 2000 years Jewish prayer has hoped ardently that the Land of Israel (Eretz Yisrael) would soon be redeemed by God and led by His Messiah; some even made pilgrimage to visit or dwell with others in the Holy Land.

Despite the dozens of advocacy groups that have sprung up over the last few years to try and “peel off” white evangelicals, why have they, by and large, failed to move the needle in any significant way away from the GOP? The answer is simply that this group of voters are Republicans first, white people second, and evangelicals…

…rotestant Women and the Consecration of Empire Gale L. Kenny NYU Press Feb, 2024 Indeed, racism and imperialism are such endemic features of conservative Protestantism that, all too often, historians and political analysts alike mistakenly position them in opposition to typically left-leaning ideals like secularism, feminism, and political and social liberalism more broadly. But to do so is to ignore how racism and imperialism actually influenced…

By Mary Rambaran-Olm

…ack woman or an orange person (whose running mate may want to pick up some better internet-search skills using the incognito option). Since I’m probably not mature enough to vote in any election, I’m off the hook. But whether or not we agree or disagree with Harris’ candidacy or record we can agree that the misogynoir she experiences is inexcusable. Personally, I think people should vote for someone based on their policies—or, if all else fails, I…

…nd them in the donor comments. Some of the comments mention Trump, who has promoted the occupation and attacked Prime Minister Justin Trudeau among others.

By Peter Laarman

…rence to the gospel as preached by these divines!” Douglass’s journey into freethinking was greatly abetted by his German-born collaborator and paramour, Ottilie Assing, who introduced him to the work of notorious infidels Ludwig Feuerbach and David Friedrich Strauss. In later years Douglass kept busts of these radical thinkers prominently displayed on his mantel. As Stewart tells it, the early approach to abolition favored by William Lloyd Garris…

An Interview with Rep. Jamie Raskin on the Feminist and Abolitionist Founder Who Has Slipped into a Memory Hole

By Andrew L. Seidel

…today—this is the paragraph Rep. Raskin quoted at the Summit for Religious Freedom in April 2024—think of what it must have been like to read or hear those words in the bleak winter of December 1776. The American people needed a victory on which to pin the last shreds of their hope. They needed a win. General Washington had Paine’s words read aloud to his soldiers on Christmas night before they crossed the Delaware River and routed the British and…
