As congressional hearings into the January 6th attack on the United States Capitol end and in the shadow of the rise of the Neo-Nazi organizations in our nation, the mid-term election is proving to be as contentious as ever. Equally, candidates around the country are trafficking white Christian nationalism. With each passing election, fringe political ideas become more and more mainstream. Simultaneously, white supremacist ideas at work in Christian practices must be contended with.
On November 6th, 2022, at 7pmET/4pmPT, Valley and Mountain Fellowship’s Center for Fatih, Art and Justice, in partnership with the UCC’s Join the Movement toward Racial Justice Initiative will host a dialogue between Rev. Dr. Obery Hendricks, author, Christians Against Christianity: How Right-Wing Evangelicals Are Destroying Our Nation and Our Faith and Dr. Anthea Butler, author, White Evangelical Racism: The Politics of Morality in America. The topic is White Christian Nationalism and the Midterm Elections. The dialogue will be moderated by the Right Rev. Dr. Edward Donalson, III, author #BlackLivesMatter: Toward an Intersectional Theology. The event will be live streamed.
