The biggest myth about White Christian nationalism

One summer night, a former Methodist minister gazed out of a window and said he saw “a mysterious apparition in the sky.” It was a group of airborne horsemen galloping across the horizon, with a rough outline of the United States materializing behind them.

His name was William J. Simmons and that vision inspired him to build a religious organization that would transform America. It was 1915, and Simmons thought that the US had abandoned its Christian heritage. Political violence was surging, traditional Christianity seemed to be under attack, and waves of olive-skinned immigrants who were not considered fully White enough by many Americans were pouring into the country from distant lands.

Simmons’ group reacted by preaching a message of “America first.” Its members joined churches, elected thousands of members to state and federal offices and led a massive march on Washington. By 1920, they grew to more than 5 million members, including one future Supreme Court justice. They played a significant role in the passage of one of America’s most explicitly racist laws, which imposed racial immigration quotas to preserve the dominance of White, Anglo-Saxon Americans.
