Impacts of Christian Nationalism in Oklahoma

In Oklahoma over the past few years, there have been bills put forward:

• - Designating the Bible as the Official State Book.
• - Establishing the nation's first taxpayer-funded religious charter school.
• - Displaying the Ten Commandments at the state capitol.
• - Mandating the Ten Commandments be displayed in every public school classroom.
• - Using Bible verses to justify spanking children with disabilities in school.
• - Religious school tax credits.
• - Banning the teaching of evolution in public schools.
• - The governor claiming the state of Oklahoma for Christ in his inaugural speech.

I spoke with Rep. Mickey Dollens, one of the few Democrats in the Oklahoma legislature, about these bills and how he and others are fighting back.
