In the aftermath of the 2026 midterm elections, religion remains a vital force in shaping American politics, public life, and the future of democracy. Join Brad Onishi, Matthew D. Taylor, Alba Onofrio, and a distinguished group of scholars, journalists, clergy, and public intellectuals for a timely roundtable discussion examining what the election revealed about faith, power, identity, and civic engagement in the United States.
Featuring authors of some of the most anticipated new books on religion, politics, democracy, and social change, this conversation will bring together leading voices who have spent years researching and documenting the movements transforming American public life. Panelists will reflect on the role of Christian nationalism, religious activism, demographic change, and competing visions of citizenship and belonging that shaped the 2026 election cycle.
Part book forum, part public conversation, and part analysis of a pivotal political moment, this event offers audiences the opportunity to engage directly with authors and experts whose new work helps explain the forces reshaping religion and democracy in America today—and what may lie ahead.
