Oct. 8: Robert P. Jones, “Christian Nationalism, Religious Pluralism, and the 2024 Election”

Robert P. Jones discussed his book, The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy and the Path to a Shared American Future, which exposes the deep historical roots of white Christian nationalism—a hierarchical worldview of God-ordained dominance that is correlated with antisemitic, anti-immigrant, and Islamophobic attitudes, along with denials of systemic racism and an insistence on patriarchal gender roles. Jones explored how the rise of white Christian nationalism today is not just about our partisan divides, but about the future of a pluralistic democracy in the U.S.
