Straight White American Jesus

They're Creating A Theocracy in Oklahoma Right Now

Listen Later

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.
