Your Therapist Needs Therapy

Your Therapist Needs Therapy 88 - It’s Not Christian. It’s Not Nationalism.

Jeremy Schumacher

This week Jeremy talks about the inherent paradox of “Christian Nationalism,” and how that phrase very intentionally doesn’t mean much of anything at all. We also follow some rabbit holes of the Christian Nationalist Crusade and early American versions of this white supremacist movement masquerading around as a patriotic religious undertaking.

Podcasts about therapy do not replace actual therapy, and listening to a podcast about therapy does not signify a therapeutic relationship.
