In this ten-part docu-series Dr. Bradley Onishi (co-host of Straight White American Jesus) uses Orange County, CA as a prism in order to trace the rise of the Religious Right through homegrown activism, local politics, presidential campaigns, billionaire donors, megachurches, media empires, and autocratic regimes at home and abroad. Combining personal storytelling with scholarly research and interviews with leading scholars, the Orange Wave unpacks the inner workings of the Religious Right’s approaches to masculinity, apocalypticism, authoritarian rule, and conspiracy theories.

Episode 8: Old School
If you want to take the country back for God, if you want to have dominion over every level of society, if you want to ensure a white Christian patriarchy rules over the land--you have to start with the children. Christian school movements are part of the fabric of the Religious Right. On this episode, Brad examines why the Christian schooling movement--including homeschooling--took off in the 60s, how it has shed government oversight, and what effects its having on our public education system and our public square. This episode features interviews with Dr. Chrissy Stroop and Scott Okamoto.
