London, then RootsCamp April 13, 2008

Sorry I haven’t posted much over the last week. I was in London working on an IT project. And then there was RootsCamp DC.

At RootsCamp, I did a presentation on the Revolution in Jesusland. I played audio excerpts from sermons and we talked about them. It went really well. One Democratic campaign staffer in the group outed herself as an evangelical Christian and talked about the urge to keep her sometimes-ridiculed identity secret in Democratic professional circles. The group cracked up at some parts of the audio clips, such as when a preacher spoke against pornography, helping to make her point.

Here are some pictures of RootsCamp:

Sessions

You can see the sign for my session in the picture above. The full subtitle was:

Have all the fundamentalist Christians become anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist revolutionaries?
No, just a few million of them.

PS: if you’re confused about RootsCamp, it’s like Foo Camp or Bar Camp.
