Report on Christian nationalism and the January 6 insurrection
Released February 9, 2022, this report is the most complete accounting to date of how Christian nationalism contributed to the events leading up to January 6 and the day of the attack itself, and it looks at responses to January 6. A recording of the webinar presenting the report is also available online.
Featuring contributions from scholars, historians, advocates, and researchers, this report was a joint project of Baptist Joint Committee for Religious Liberty (BJC), Freedom From Religion Foundation, and Christians Against Christian Nationalism.
You can access the written report released during the webinar at the following links:
Visit this link for resources on the Christians Against Christian Nationalism website: https://www.christiansagainstchristiannationalism.org/resources
There, you will find informational handouts to help better define the ideology, and there are small group discussion guides to use as you work to help others interrogate the ideology and recognize it when it shows up. The website also has webinars and resources you can share on social media to raise this issue with others in your community.
As was said during the webinar, responding to Christian nationalism will take a widespread and prolonged response as we all work to call out and unroot the ideology in our culture.
