The Catholic Strain of Christian Nationalism

  • Summary

  • Are Catholics doing Christian nationalism, too? I thought that was just a Protestant thing. But just look at the court! And these other guys! How did we come from a place 100 years ago where Catholics in America were an oppressed minority, targets of anti-immigrant legislation and harassment by the KKK, to now - where a network of Catholic hardliners sit at the height of political power? Are they working hand in hand with evangelical Protestant and apostolic Pentecostal Christian nationalists? And what does that mean for the future of religious freedom in America?


    Dr. Karen Park is Professor of Theology and Religious Studies at St. Norbert College, in De Pere, Wisconsin. She has written widely on Marian devotion and shrines and American religion and popular culture, with work appearing in Religion Dispatches and Sojourners. She holds a PhD from the Divinity School of the University of Chicago and co-edited the book American Patroness: Marian Shrines and the Making of US Catholicism, a collection of twelve essays that examine the historical and contemporary roles of Marian shrines in US Catholicism released in early 2024 by Fordham University Press.
