MOVIE DISCUSSION: 

Sons of Patriarchy: Podcast, Instagram, Website / Outreach Idaho: Website

Peter Bell, host of the Sons of Patriarchy podcast, joins Melvin to discuss a little-seen 2015 documentary titled Welcome to Leith. As Peter podcasts about the ideological invasion of Douglas Wilson and Christian Nationalism over Moscow, Idaho, Melvin was reminded of the Welcome to Leith - a documentary about notorious white supremacist Craig Cobb's attempted local government takeover of Leith, North Dakota - and jumped at the opportunity to discuss it with Peter!

Topics:

  • (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 30-minutes discussing the importance of including a mix of Christian & non-Christian voices in journalistic endeavors, the differences between the two, and how the pursuit of truth requires media literacy. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
  • Peter ponders the relationship between truth and bravery, and teases out what to expect with Sons of Patriarchy Season 2.
  • Similarities between the "invasions" of Moscow, Idaho and Leith, North Dakota, and also Douglas Wilson and Craig Cobb.
  • Has the internet increased the danger of radicalization?
  • It takes less than a year for an evil man to destabilize a community.
  • The impact of complex trauma.
  • How the Quiverfull Movement is actually just Birtherism; or better understood as familial slavery and eugenics.
  • The end of the film and aftermath between 2015 and 2025.
