The Power of Christian Nationalism (Neon Liberalism #81, with Allyson Shortle)

The Power of Christian Nationalism (Neon Liberalism #81, with Allyson Shortle)

Samantha and guest Allyson Shortle, professor at the University of Oklahoma, talk about the current state and long history of the movement which forms the hard core of Donald Trump's support: Christian Nationalism. Where did this movement begin? How deep are its roots in American myth? What do they believe, and why have they stuck with Trump even as other groups begin to desert him?

Neon Liberalism can be heard on Spotify, on Apple, on YouTube, on Amazon, and elsewhere via its RSS feed.
