But then the news cycle passes and, with each expression of anti-LGBTQ Catholic doctrine on diocesan and global levels, these small victories are tarnished with sadness and frustration. This is not to say that these moments of recognition don’t matter to me or to so many other LGBTQ Catholics; it’s just to say that it hurts me so much more when these slight openings have no practical im…

…tral to Christian nationalism. Neither is poised to dissipate, despite the new president’s optimism that racist zealots like Pompeo, Sen. Josh Hawley, and Sen.

The ongoing pairing of Christian devotion with post-Trump paranoia about President “Bejing Biden,” neatly encapsulated by the above timelines, should shock precisely no one. Christian nati…

As these Christian nationalists scapegoat minorities for the country’s ills, the changing social landscape has led to open calls for violence—the January 6th assault on the capitol complex being only the most infamous example.

Alarming New Report Shows Attacks on Public Education Are Coordinated by Right-Wing Think Tanks

By Hialy Gutierrez

…s when we use political economic analysis for the US higher education landscape? We need to recognize that, as the business model of higher education changes, the knowledge that universities produce also changes.
