I need help: A friend is meeting with some teachers to discuss racial inequalities in middle and high school. They would like to have some studies ready to show the teachers the inequalities minority kids, esp. black boys, face in schools.
I'll be doing a search on my own, but would love the insight of experts who could point to 2-3 studies that make this point really well. Or to strategies that help teachers do better for minority students in these situations.

Thanks so much for any help!!!

What is Christian nationalism, exactly?

"White Christian nationalism is a cultural framework that idealizes and advocates for a fusion of a particular expression of Christianity with American civic life." (p. 28)

amazon.com/American-Idola…
"It holds that this version of Christianity should be the principal and undisputed cultural framework in the United States and that the government should
vigorously preserve that cultural framework."
"Christian nationalism combines a number of elements. The first element is a strong moral traditionalism based on creating and sustaining social hierarchies. Oftentimes these revolve around gender and sexuality."

Does Christian nationalism make Americans less Christ-like?

Consider some evidence:

Americans who embrace Christian nationalism are *more likely* to say political violence is sometimes necessary in order to "save our country."

(@PRRIpoll /Brookings, 2023) Image
Americans who embrace Christian nationalism are more likely to believe immigrants "undermine American culture," "increase crime," and should be kept from coming to the US.

(Whitehead & Perry, 2020) Image
Americans who embrace Christian nationalism are *more likely* to be uncomfortable w/ interracial marriage, deny racial differences in policing, and believe police officers use violence against Black Americans more often because Black Americans are inherently more violent.

Christian nationalism in the wild!

Sent to me from a friend in east Tennessee. An evocative representation of how guns (and all they have come to represent in the US) are a key cultural icon of Christian nationalism in the United States.
The redefining of the "right to bear arms" to mean that any (white) citizen should be able to access, purchase, and use almost any type of firearm with little to no oversight . . .
highlights the individualism, populism, authoritarianism, and idolization of violence inherent to Christian nationalism.

Gun are viewed as a vital ingredient to fulfill their particular interpretation of God's will for the country.

New Christian Nationalism Findings!

@PRRIpoll & @BrookingsInst just released the findings from a new survey of over 6,000 Americans. This report helps us know who embraces Christian nationalism, and what those folks believe. #ChristianNationalism

prri.org/research/a-chr…
For instance, around 29% of Americans are at least sympathetic to Christian nationalism. @PRRIpoll labels these folks "Adherents" and "Sympathizers". Image
They asked 5 different questions and created a Christian nationalism scale. This is similar to what we did in Taking America Back for God.

Glad to see a continuation of what questions are asked which help us further specify what Americans really believe and desire. Image

She walked up to me after I presented on Christian nationalism & the threat to American Christianity.

Quietly, but with the weight of her entire world she said, "We just want our kids to live. To be seen as our children. We just want them to grow up."
"Why can't they see our Black boys and girls as children? Our children?" she asked me.

"They talked about that young man who took the gun to the George Floyd protests and killed those 2 people, they saw him as a child."
"Why can't they see our Black boys and girls as children?"

"We just want them to be able to grow up."
