How to Be an Activist Historian This week I will be republishing some of my features from Current. --JF Putting the “history” back into “activist history” am often asked if I have ever debated David Barton on the question “Was America founded as a Christian nation?” I have not. Barton is a popular conservative evangelical political operative who through his organization Wallbuilders uses the American past to promote his political agenda.

So sorry this happened. But so glad you are here. I jumped ship on Twitter shortly after the buyout and it became clear where it was headed. Hope this place takes off. It is like Twitter (but better) in the “old days”.

I love that the voices I call The Remnant (those that found each other back in 2016 with the rise of xian nationalism) are finally coming to BlueSky. Please ask Dr Jemar Tisby to follow suit.

Yeah! I am so glad what I call The Remnant (the voices that found each other on social media when xian nationalism & the great sort went on the rise in 2016) are all coming to BlueSky. I can rebuild my Twitter feed. Now just to get Jemar Tisby, Phil Vischer, David French & Kaitlyn Schiess here.

Yeah! The people I call The Remnant (those that seemed to find each other on social media after the rise in xian nationalism and the great sort began in 2016) are finding their way to Bluesky. I may be able to rebuild my Twitter feed now!

I hope you can get all the other sane voices to come here. I just can’t do Twitter/X anymore.

Yeah! You’re here. Hoping this is a legitimate replacement for Twitter/X. I have missed my simple news and account aggregator of the thinkers I value.
