Red, White, and Righteous

In the final episode, we focus on Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk, the immediate aftermath of his death, how his allies memorialized him, and his connection to the Christian nationalist movement. 

In this episode, we look at the history of Christian populism and white supremacy in Indiana, from the original language of the Indiana Constitution on religion to the ramifications of more recent religious legislation and policy changes.

In this episode, faith leaders and scholars discuss the theological underpinnings of Christian nationalism, such as dominion theology — the belief that Christians are called by God to exercise their authority over all aspects of society. 

Our first story in this series explains what was in the resolution and how it fared with legislators; defines Christian Nationalism; offers Beckwith’s view on its place in government; and lines that up against the view of a constitutional law scholar
