Episode 20.1: Reactionary Evangelical Christianity

We're finally back! In the first of our several part series on the reactionary force of American Evangelical Christianity, I take a look at Kristin Kobes Du Mez's book, Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation. We trace the development of Fundamentalist Protestantism into Modernist and Fundamentalist movements that evolved, coalesced, and diverged throughout WWI, WWII, and leading into the Cold War. Using Du Mez's fantastic work, I analyze how nationalism, patriarchy, capitalism, and white supremacy played important roles in this movement's early years, and how it continues to guide it into 2021.
