The playbook of the far right for an authoritarian takeover of American democracy was Project 2025. But what has happened since the 2024 election? We knew prior to the election the rights and freedoms of anyone living in these united states were on the line. We also understand people of faith as well as faith communities have a critical role in calling out and addressing Project 2025. Where do things stand now? Guthrie Graves-Fitzsimmons, Vice President of Programs & Strategy of Interfaith Alliance, was the first to draw attention to the role of Christian nationalism in Project 2025 before the election. Guthrie will join us to share his insights and how we can best respond to the religious extremism.
