How does Christian nationalism overlap with and provide cover for white supremacy and racial subjugation? This conversation between author and scholar Jemar Tisby and researcher Robert P. Jones sheds light on ways white supremacy is intertwined with Christian nationalism and how we can work to root it out of our churches and ourselves. BJC Executive Director Amanda Tyler moderates the discussion, which includes personal experiences and how to approach difficult conversations.
