UUCSR’s Rev. Dr. Natalie Fenimore interviews Robert P. Jones, PhD, about his book "White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity"

We concluded our successful Spring Series with the Social Justice Committee on Thursday May 5th, when Rev. Dr. Natalie Fenimore interviewed Dr. Robert P. Jones, Executive Director of long-time Veatch grantee Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) about this important book. At this event, Jones shares how his family story shaped his understanding of the relationship between white supremacy and Christianity in the U.S., and how through extensive research he continues to shed light on how that legacy continues to be present in current religious, community, and political life. In a powerful conversation with Rev. Fenimore, the author also provides some ideas about how can we all work to dismantle this legacy of white supremacy and build truly multicultural and multiracial communities, religious and otherwise.

For more writings and timely commentary by Jones, we encourage you to subscribe to his Substack page, which includes his most recent article, "Alito and Public Opinion Reveal the Link Between Roe and a Broader White Christian Nationalist Agenda." For more information on the book, or to purchase it, please follow this link.
