Fairview Satellite Event: Understanding the Rise of White Christian Nationalism and the Threat it Poses
A great deal of attention has been directed toward a group of Americans, referred to as White Christian Nationalists, whose basic ideologies are seemingly as upside down as U.S. flags, influenced by every wind and doctrine of the Republican Party, to please their leader, former president, Donald Trump, to assuage their love of power, instead of seeking the power of God's love, and to establish a new kingdom in the United States by dismantling democracy. Special attention and discussion will be devoted to identifying the impact of White Christian Nationalism and Project 2025 on the 2024 election cycle.
