Project 2025

Hey Southern Lehigh Dems!

Here is a follow up with a few resources that I referred to that may be helpful, including digital copies of the project 2025 explainers that I gave out that day. In addition to the attached files there are also a few helpful sites with project 2025 explainers that might be useful. Media Matters has one.

There is also one that is focused on Gen Z that might be helpful for people talking to their children/grandchildren.

This November, it will take each of us, and our friends and family members, to vote for those who will protect the freedoms being threatened by the plans outlined in Project 2025. Our Rally tool is a free, easy way to track who you speak with for relational organizing or what is also called "deep canvassing". We also provide actions you can take to guide discussions. You can access the tool here to sign up and get started. Feel free to contact me if you need any assistance in setting up this tool for yourselves, I would be happy to help.

I also wanted to provide a few resources, if interested, on some of the topics that I spoke about regarding my experience with white evangelical culture and Christian Nationalism.

Books:

Jesus and John Wayne by Dr. Kristen Kobes Du Mez
The Power Worshippers by Stewart (The documentary God and Country is based on this book)
The Color of Compromise by Dr. Jemar Tisby
The Well Trained Wife by Tia Levings
White Evangelical Racism by Dr. Anthea Butler

 

Documentaries:

I so appreciated the opportunity to speak with Southern Lehigh Dems at the August Meeting and hope it contributed to helping us stay motivated to ensure a safer and more just world for everyone.

Another terrific resource to quickly see what Project 2025 will do is the "How does Project 2025 Affect Me?"  You can easily search for specific topics (eg. "climate" or "reproductive rights") https://www.25and.me/?topics=
