FOCUS GROUP at #AARSBL: We are gathering information about how and why religion scholars are using podcasts in their courses. If you will be at #aarsbl and would like to join a focus group (free lunch or dinner!), please DM us.
SURPRISE DROP - Ep 7 is available now! A look into the Trump campaign's inhumane rhetoric on immigration - and what Trump or Harris presidencies would mean for the future of sanctuary. @ElProfeBarba @SMGonzalezWI With generous funding from @HLuceFdn. redcircle.com/shows/a2b3982f…
Spies in the pews? Criminal informants at Bible study? By the mid 1980s, facing pressure from a coalition of religious and political critics of the movement, the Department of Justice moved forward with a plan to covertly infiltrate sanctuary churches. redcircle.com/shows/a2b3982f…
Since the folks/campaigns are apparently talking about Sanctuary Cities again, just your regular reminder that — as I note in American Prophets — the entire concept was actually a faith-based effort, and was itself an outgrowth of the original faith-led Sanctuary Movement.
Ep 2: Gunfire, Death Squads, the Origins of Sanctuary - OUT NOW! Fleeing violence, migrants faced a harrowing journey through the desert -> Tucson-based activists made public the work they had already been doing: offering sanctuary to those in need. redcircle.com/shows/a2b3982f…
Friends, episode 1 of “Sanctuary: On the Border Between Church and State” is officially out! Please share widely, tune in, and subscribe for the next 6 episodes in the coming days. @IRMCEorg @SMGonzalezWI @BradleyOnishi @StraightWhiteJC open.spotify.com/show/4kVxqJZfa…
