E170: Politics and Civic Engagement “After” Religion w/ Jason Racheotes

This week on RfRx, Jason Racheotes will be joining us to discuss how our views on politics and civic engagement may evolve and change after deconverting or coming out of religion. We will learn about some different political concepts that are often ignored and get more clarity on tangible actions we can take as individuals to improve our political process. Jason Racheotes was raised in a secular household, but was always interested in the relationship between politics and religion. He grew up learning about the cultural significance of religious traditions, and went on to study political science at George Washington University. He has taught social sciences previously and has been volunteering with RfR since May of this year. He also hosts the Non-Essential Workers Podcast.
