Safe Schools & Strong Communities: Is My Child Being Radicalized? (Southwest)


Adult Enrichment / Health, Wellness & Safety -
Adult Enrichment Winter 2026

When tragedy strikes a community at the hands of young adults, we are often asked how this could have happened. Join author/journalist Angela Decker as she explains the methods/ideology behind much of right-wing online radicalization, and also how they play to a sense of disconnectedness and search for identity among young white boys and men. She will also touch on relevant American culture, social issues, journalism, theology, and parenting, as well as how right-wing fundamentalist Christianity/Christian Nationalism and its ideology is a part of the radicalization targeting young boys and men. These topics are from her recent book, Disciples of White Jesus: The Radicalization of American Boyhood, which can be purchased at the class.

Rev. Angela Denker is an award-winning author, ELCA Lutheran pastor, and veteran journalist. Her first book, Red State Christians, was the 2019 Silver Foreword Indies award-winner for political and social sciences. Her second book, Disciples of White Jesus: The Radicalization of American Boyhood, came out on March, 25, 2025. She is a former columnist for the Minnesota Star Tribune and has written for many publications, including Sports Illustrated, the Washington Post, and FORTUNE magazine, and has appeared on CNN, BBC, SkyNews, and NPR to share her research on politics and Christian Nationalism.

If class is full, please enroll for the waitlist. We will contact you if a space becomes available.
