  • - The Extremist History of White Christian Nationalism--And What Comes Next
    av Bradley Onishi
    179,-

    "A clear-eyed, compelling study of the road to Jan. 6 and the possible future of the politics-versus-religion battle in the U.S." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review Watching the eerie footage of the January 6 insurrection, Bradley Onishi wondered: If I hadn't left evangelicalism, would I have been there? The insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, was not a blip or an aberration. It was the logical outcome of years of a White evangelical subculture's preparation for war. Religion scholar and former insider Bradley Onishi maps the origins of White Christian nationalism and traces its offshoots in Preparing for War. This paperback edition includes a new preface from the author that speaks to the contemporary currents of White Christian nationalism. Combining his own experiences in the youth groups and prayer meetings of the 1990s with an immersive look at the steady blending of White grievance politics with evangelicalism, Onishi crafts an engrossing account of the years-long campaign of White Christian nationalism that led to January 6. How did the rise of what Onishi calls the New Religious Right, between 1960 and 2015, give birth to violent White Christian nationalism during the Trump presidency and beyond? What propelled some of the most conservative religious communities in the country--communities of which Onishi was once a part--to ignite a cold civil war? Through chapters on White supremacy and segregationist theologies, conspiracy theories, the Christian-school movement, purity culture, and the right-wing media ecosystem, Onishi pulls back the curtain on a subculture that birthed a movement and has taken a dangerous turn. In taut and unsparing prose, Onishi traces the migration of many White Christians to Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming in what is known as the American Redoubt. Learning the troubling history of the New Religious Right and the longings and logic of White Christian nationalism is deeply alarming. It is also critical for preserving the shape of our democracy for years to come.

  • - Return to Who You Are Beneath the Armor You Carry
    av Chichi Agorom
    179,-

    Am I worthy of belonging? Am I loved just as I am? Am I safe to exist without worry? The Enneagram is a map of human development that shows us the limiting stories that keep us stuck in unhelpful patterns and invites us into more expansive stories. For too long, conversations about the Enneagram and its personality types have been centered on whiteness. In The Enneagram for Black Liberation, certified Enneagram teacher and trained psychotherapist Chichi Agorom reclaims the Enneagram as a powerful tool for Black women to rediscover our wholeness and worth. This paperback edition includes a new guide to practicing freedom. Breaking down each Enneagram type as a form of protective armor, this book offers practices to help us remember our sense of self separate from our survival strategies. For those of us who stay armored up constantly, Agorom offers a path to discovering who we are beneath the armor we carry, and how to access more choice and ease. Centering the liberation of Black women as key to our collective liberation, Agorom invites each of us to claim the Enneagram as a tool for greater ease and freedom.
