Christianity Is Fueling the American Illiteracy Crisis
This is one of my best performing videos in a while! The American Humanist Association provided me really incredible sources to understand this issue, and the result seems to be resonating with people. Are there any other social issues you’d like to see me investigate Christian Nationalism’s role in?

As grandpa used to say, "Someone has to pump the gas." I suppose today it would be "Someone has to man the cash register."
A colleague I used to work with would travel to our facility from CO. He was saying that he and his wife homeschool. He also mentioned that CO requires checks to ensure the homeschooling meets state education standards. He joined a company that "validates" the checks with the state on their behalf (and all members) that the requirements are being met. Otherwise, no one interferes with how they are educating their children.
Great topic. Literacy is such an important lens for looking at how religion and policy intersect. I'd love to see you dig into how Christian Nationalism shapes school curriculum and library access next.
