Some of the information has been around for awhile, and I knew why both Moores left the denomination. Am at the moment reading “Shadow Network” by Anne Nelson laying out the right_wing parties’ involvement in our government. Just finished “White Too Long” by Robert P Jones, giving the history of the SBC.

Hope you’ve also read Nancy MacLean’s Democracy in Chains and Jane Mayer’s Dark Money. Along with Shadow Network, they are almost a trilogy of sorts. They’re important in helping make sense of where we are now.

Ms Rauth: having read the first two, I say (today, of course) Amen to your recommendation. Shadow Network goes on my reading list.

We owe these authors, especially Jane Mayer (Ginni Thomas). After these books, continue on with Whiteshift, for background on rascism.

Yes, I have already read those.
