Q&A with Money Lies & God author Katherine Stewart
|
|
Investigative journalist Katherine Stewart joins us on December 9 to discuss her book Money, Lies and God: Inside the Movement to Destroy American Democracy. Her New York Times bestseller exposes the inner workings of the “engine of unreason“ roiling American culture and politics. How did we get to the point where an organized political movement is working to destroy American democracy? Why have so many Americans turned against democracy?

Stewart is a go-to authority on Christian nationalism and the threats to American democracy. Rob Reiner’s recent documentary God & Country is based on her 2020 book The Power Worshippers.
An indispensible citizen's guide to the anti-democratic MAGA Right. The whole gang is here in their dubious political glory.
– Congressman Jamie Raskin
A bracing must-read story of how the varied streams have merged into a mighty river moving toward massive destruction – and how together we can divert it.
– Nancy MacLean, Democracy in Chains
A stunning, sweeping account ... This book places Katherine Stewart among the most significant journalists of her generation.
