What is ‘Great Replacement’ Theory and how can we push back against it?

It’s a bigoted ideology that has led to hate and violence – and to U.S. laws and fringe political movements. But why does it continue to shape immigration policies and pop up in cable news and social media? This week we speak to Alan Cross, a Southern Baptist pastor, and author who has written extensively on the role of the church in race relations.  

Be sure to check out our in-depth explainer and resource page about the ‘Great Replacement’ theory’s origins, its misconceptions, and the ways we can push back against it.
