White evangelical racism : the politics of morality in America / Anthea Butler.

• Introduction: Evangelical Racism: A Feature, Not a Bug -- Racist Foundations of Evangelicalism in the Nineteenth Century -- Saving the Nation: Fervor, Fear, and Challenges to Jim Crow -- Whitewashing Racism and the Rise of the Religious Right -- How Firm a Foundation: a Twenty-First-Century Precipice Appears -- Conclusion: Whom Will You Serve?. 

• "The American political scene today is poisonously divided, and the vast majority of white evangelicals play a strikingly unified, powerful role in the disunion. These evangelicals raise a starkly consequential question for electoral politics: Why do they claim morality while supporting politicians who act immorally by most Christian measures? In this clear-eyed, hard-hitting chronicle of American religion and politics, Anthea Butler answers that racism is at the core of conservative evangelical activism and power."--
