Description
In this full episode of Freethought Radio, FFRF Co-President Annie Laurie Gaylor and Dan Barker feature speakers from FFRF's 49th annual national convention.
First, student essay winners Isaiah Lopez-Ruiz and Nyla Woods explain how Christian nationalism functions to uphold white supremacy and marginalize minorities.
Then, Texas educators Gigi Cervantes and Johnnie Cotton explain why they left their teaching jobs rather letting religious texts into their classrooms.
Finally, Jennifer Welch, co-host of the hit podcast "I've Had It" and bestselling author of "Not Today, Fascists," delivers a blistering critique of Christian nationalism in her acceptance speech for FFRF’s Emperor Has No Clothes Award.
