We are proud to announce Uncivil Religion! It's a new digital resource tracing the threads of religion throughout the events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021 and developed in collaboration with the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History:

Uncivil Religion: Uncivil Religion
A Curated Archive of Media from the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021

Religious symbols, rituals, identities, banners, signs, and sounds suffused the events surrounding the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. This project begins to trace the thread of religion that wound throughout that day through pieces of digital media. It does this in two ways. First, there is a collection of essays that analyze individual pieces of media from January 6 in order to explain the role religion played that day. Second, there is a series of galleries that contain pieces of media that represent the variety of ways religion "showed up" on January 6. This project is illustrative and not exhaustive. There is so much more to be found, said, and documented about the role of religion on January 6 and this project will continue to grow.
