The religious right is promoting an anti-science, historical revisionist and Biblical literature agenda in the home schools, Christian private schools and public schools.  Joining us to share what is happening is an extraordinary panel of experts, including:

  • Nationally-recognized researcher, public speaker and writer RACHEL TABACHNICK, an expert on public education and the religious right, who has provided research for both Democratic and Republican candidates;
  • BRUCE WILSON, co-founder of Talk2Action.org, whose research on the religious right and New Apostolic Reformation movement caused former GOP presidential candidate John McCain to reject his long-sought political endorsement from influential Christian evangelist, Texas megachurch pastor and Christians United For Israel founder John Hagee.
  • CHRIS RODDA, a leading authority on the religious right’s revision of history, author of Liars For Jesus, a series of books debunking David Barton’s Jefferson Lies, and senior researcher with the Military Religious Freedom Foundation;
  • Homeschooling Anonymous’ founder, RYAN STOLLAR, whose work on exposing the abuses of Christian fundamentalism in  home schools was reported by Michelle Goldberg for The Daily Beast; and
  • CHERIE McGINN, retired teacher with 34 years of teaching at three of the top high schools in the nation. Cherie’s specialty was AP  European History and Comparative Religions.
