…alism played in violently assaulting our democracy. Let’s hope this select committee doesn’t ignore, or worse, cover for, Christian Nationalism. Let’s hope this select committee listens to Officer Hodges. Because on January 6, Christian Nationalism proved that it is indeed un-American and that it will not go gently into the obsolescence for which it is bound. If we refuse to identify and confront this threat, it will strike again. The terrorists m…

Apocalypse Now and Then: How a Biblical Genre Shapes American Politics

…tures their sense of the disorder of the last half century as they’ve been compelled to share cultural and political power with other groups. As it did centuries ago, apocalypse channels the persecuted group’s fear, focusing their resentment and properly directing their anger.

…ss in the name of spreading the gospel. The Black evangelical activist and community organizer John Perkins took in this scene and saw self-satisfied white congregations denying their complicity with an age of racial injustice.

…respectability” sure are eager to deceive people with respect to their “welcoming” of members of the LGBTQ community. What’s going on? In the first decade of the twenty-first century, in some conservative, mostly white evangelical circles there were calls to dial down the culture warring—at least in terms of the rhetoric, if not so much the theology that fueled it, nor the pervasive support for the concomitant anti-LGBTQ, anti-woman political agen…

White Supremacy Erases Its Violence: The Predictable Blaming of Antifa

…responsibility while, in reality, never taking responsibility but instead complaining about perceived grievances and blaming your victims. Blaming the victims and opponents of White Supremacy is as American a political tradition as it gets. We simply do not “remember” it as such because that’s part of the magic of White Supremacy: it gets to erase itself. Something like the #TrumperTantrum at the Capitol, though striking in its specifics, then ap…

…p racial, ethnic, and nationalistic purity into equation.” https://twitter.com/BradleyOnishi/status/1372218576518619148 As my co-host says, focusing on the purity of the individual body leads to trying to purify the national body. Purity culture is a step away from a pure national body. A body whose borders are not breached by foreign invaders, including sexual tempters and those of low morals. If purity culture puts undue pressure on women to rem…

Bergeron told RD, “White supremacy holds Asians in a weird light, complimenting them on being the ‘good minority,’ while also devaluing women into sex objects who exist for their pleasure.” Describing her own experience, she recalled, “As an adult in the SBC, I saw this fetish and d…
