TransLash Podcast with Imara Jones
Society & Culture
With the Republican National Convention underway, Imara takes a closer look at the rise of Christian Zionist ideas within the G.O.P. First, she’s joined by writer Aidan Orly who unpacks the biblical and political origins of Christian Zionism. They explain how and why Israeli politicians are allying with conservative Christian Zionists in the United States despite the movement’s deep antisemitism. Next, she talks with Natasha Roth-Rowland about the evolution of far right politics in Israel throughout the 20th century, the growth of Christian Zionism alongside evangelical power during the Reagan era, and failures of imagination around equal rights in Israel-Palestine.
