In this episode of The Tim and April Show, Tim Whitaker and April Ajoy discuss a controversial incident involving a college student who received a zero on her essay about gender roles, which she attributed to her Christian beliefs. The conversation explores the implications of her claims, the responses from the academic community, and the media's role in shaping the narrative around Christian nationalism and perceived persecution.
