SUMMARY:Jeff Sharlet\, NYT Bestselling Author of "The Undertow" presented by The Tom & Charley Crow Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, March 7th\, 2024 at 6:30 pm \nSanctuary\, First Unitarian Church 4015 Normandy Ave\, Dallas\, TX\, 75205 \nClick here to register for this free event. \n\n\n\nA conversation about the rise of Christian nationalism in politics and religion with New York Times best-selling author Jeff Sharlet. Join us for a lecture and Q&A at 6:30 pm followed by a book signing at 7:30 pm.\n\n\n\nFirst Unitarian Church of Dallas presents The Tom and Charley Crow Lecture with Jeff Sharlet\, the New York Times best-selling author or editor of eight books\, including The Undertow: Scenes from a Slow Civil War and The Family: The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power\, adapted into a Netflix documentary series. His reporting on LGBTIQ+ rights around the world has received the National Magazine Award\, the Molly Ivins Prize\, and Outright International’s Outspoken Award. His writing and photography have appeared in many publications\, including Vanity Fair\, for which he is a contributing editor; the New York Times Magazine; GQ; Esquire; Harper’s Magazine; and VQR\, for which he is an editor at large. He is the Frederick Sessions Beebe ’35 Professor in the Art of Writing at Dartmouth College\, where he lives in the woods with many animals. \nIn The Undertow: Scenes from a Slow Civil War\, veteran journalist Jeff Sharlet reckons with the tumultuous changes of the last ten years\, a decade that will likely be remembered as one of the new century’s most significant. An unmatched guide to the religious dimensions of American politics\, Sharlet journeys into corners of our national psyche where others fear to tread. The Undertow is both inquiry and meditation\, an attempt to understand how\, over the last decade\, reaction has morphed into delusion\, social division into distrust\, distrust into paranoia\, and hatred into fantasies—sometimes realities—of violence. \nThe Tom and Charley Crow Lecture is presented in honor of the Crow Brothers and their quest of truth as a sacrament and of knowledge in freedom. These lectures focus on rational dialogue\, boldly exploring the most important core topics facing our nation\, stressing logical\, philosophical and sociological bases of positions\, while both avoiding and exposing fallacies of fact and argument without rancor.
