Bennion Workshop Keynote Address - Deep Stories and Democracy: Excavating Religion in American Society
This presentation is free and open to the public as part of the Bennion Teachers' Workshop. Lauren Kerby, a scholar of American religion and politics at at Princeton University, and an expert on the pedagogy of religious studies, will present on the importance of understanding religion in society and why it matters. Dr. Kerby’s first book, Saving History: How White Evangelicals Tour the Nation's Capital and Redeem a Christian America (University of North Carolina, 2020), explores white Christian nationalists' stories about the United States and how they shape white evangelicals' religious identity and political behavior. Her current project develops a pedagogy for the public understanding of religion, focusing on how religious narratives invisibly inform how Americans think about work.
