Webinar 2: Unmasking Christian Nationalism in America

Tuesday, March 7, 2023 @ 7:30 p.m. ET

​ASL & Closed Caption provided
A recording will be provided for all who RSVP even if you can’t attend
Join us for a deep dive into the underpinnings of white Christian Nationalism revealed by the new PRRI/Brookings survey. With responses from over 6,000 Americans, the results provide new measures to estimate the proportion of Americans who adhere to and reject Christian nationalist ideology, its rising influence in some circles of American politics and the major threat it poses to the to the health of our democracy.

​We’ll also discuss how these results affect the work of organizations and individuals to maintain the separation of church and state and preserve inclusive religious freedom, as well as the issues nearest to them like abortion access, LGBTQ+ rights, and strong public schools.

The survey also examines how Christian Nationalist views intersect with white identity, anti-Black sentiment, patriarchy, antisemitism, anti-Muslim sentiments, anti-immigrant attitudes, authoritarianism, and support for violence. Additionally, the survey explores the influence Christian Nationalism has among our two political parties and major religious subgroups today. ​

Featuring staff members of Americans United for Separation of Church & State and a special guest:

  • ​Andrew Seidel, VP of Strategic Communications of Americans United

This webinar is part of our upcoming Summit for Religious Freedom (SRF), April 22-24, 2023, in Washington, D.C., or virtually. Part of what makes SRF different is the continuous programming that accompanies it, including free webinars like these. In the future these webinars will only be available to SRF registrants, but to celebrate our inaugural year, we’re inviting everyone to join us! These webinars give a great example of some of the outstanding programming you can experience at SRF.

Webinar 1: Post-Election Analysis

Wednesday, November 16, 2022 @ 7:30 p.m. ET
This month, voters across the country will go to the polls to vote for candidates, policies and more that will have a major impact on our fight for religious freedom, church-state separation and the issues that depend on them. Join us to be the first to hear about the results, how our democratic processes held up to the threats they faced (especially from Christian Nationalist candidates) and the impact on the issues we all care about including LGBTQ+ equality, reproductive rights, protecting public schools and more.
