“A GREAT AND POWERFUL AND TIMELY FILM, filled with the dread this moment engenders; the cynical misuse of religion to advance aims diametrically the opposite of Christianity’s mission.” Ken Burns, creator of acclaimed documentaries
This powerful and disturbing documentary reveals how Christian Nationalism has become one of the most powerful political forces in the nation by spreading fear and anger, and distorting political issues into battles between good and evil. Their ultimate goal – highlighted in their Project 2025 manifesto – is the destruction of church-state separation, inclusive religious freedom, LGBTQ+ and women’s rights, inclusive public schools, the rights of religious minorities and nonbelievers and more… all while enshrining their narrow and extremist religious beliefs into law for us to suffer under.
Financed by the secretive Council for National Policy, the movement has succeeded in infiltrating American politics and has become one of the most powerful political forces in the nation. Discover the origins of this organized grasp for power, and learn about the grassroots coalition of secular and interfaith leaders who are bravely confronting the grave threat Christian Nationalism poses to our democracy.
