Building Bridges
presents a 2-hour special on the new book:

“C Street: The Fundamentalist Threat to American Democracy”
with Dartmouth Professor Jeff Sharlet,

National bestselling author of The Family,contributing editor for Harper’s, Rolling Stone, and contributing writer to the Nation, Mother Jones, the New Republic and numerous other newspapers and magazines.


Even after the sexual affairs of several congressmen brought the Fellowship (and its D.C. residence on C Street) into the light, most Americans have still never heard of the elitist, fundamentalist organization the Family, or the Fellowship, a mostly faceless organization whose goal is to convert the world to a trickle-down Christianity, where God has chosen the leaders (them) to lead and everyone else follows. The Fellowship, for example, had no problem working with heads of state like Haiti’s Papa Doc Duvalier and those in present-day Uganda, who advocate the death penalty for homosexuals. This heavily financed, multilayered organization has been operating for decades—and today is actively implanted within the Congress as well as the U.S. military. The Fellowship is a convergence of piety and corruption of democracy. Prof. Sharlet explains why, after the collapse of the Christian Right, the C Street Washington address and those who cohere around it in the Fellowship are more dangerous than ever. Sharlet’s analysis of the growing fault lies in American democracy are brilliant and terrifying.
