White Christian Nationalism and the Capitol Riot: How did we get here and what comes next? 

ICJS online course: January 6, 2023
Watching the shocking footage of the January 6 insurrection, Brad Onishi wondered: If I hadn't left evangelicalism would I have been there? Onishi, a religion scholar and former evangelical insider, believes the insurrection at the U.S. 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.
In this online forum, taking place on the second anniversary of the Capitol Riot, Onishi will talk about his new book, Preparing for War: The Extremist History of White Christian Nationalism-and What Comes Next, in which he maps the origins of White Christian nationalism, with its steady blending of White grievance politics with evangelicalism, and traces its offshoots. Matt Taylor, ICJS scholar, will lead the conversation.
