  • Evangelical Christianity's Purity Movement, and its effect on American Women

    Host Laura Zarrow speaks with Linda Kay Klein about Evangelical Christianity's purity movement, and its effect on a generation of American women. In the 1990s, a “purity industry” emerged out of the white evangelical Christian culture, and it carried a dangerous message: girls were potential sexual “stumbling blocks” for boys and men, and any expression of a girl’s sexuality could reflect the corruption of her character. This message traumatized many girls and trapped them in a cycle of shame. Linda Kay Klein was one of those girls, today she's the founder of Break Free Together, a program that works to help people release sexual shame and claim their whole selves. Linda is also the author of Pure: Inside the Evangelical Movement That Shamed a Generation of Young Women and How I Broke Free.
