During a congressional hearing last week, presidents from Harvard, MIT and the University of Pennsylvania came under fire for their testimony regarding the rise of anti-Semitism on college campuses. The three women remained evasive and dismissive when asked if calls for the genocide of Jews violated their universities policies on bullying and harassment. One of those testifying, Harvard president Claudine Gay, also had allegations brought against her on multiple instances of plagiarism throughout her academic career. Dr. Carol M. Swain is a political scientist and legal scholar whose work was plagiarized by Claudine Gay, among other scholars. On this episode of The City of God, Dr. Swain calls out the Harvard president for plagiarizing her work, as well as denounces the practices of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

Radical gender ideology targets children and wreaks psychological and medical havoc. Many have been stunned over the past few years to discover the damage this ideology inflicts on people.

We often hear in the news about racism, bigotry, and xenophobia running rampant across America, when in reality, racist policies are really coming from those on the radical left. This past summer the Supreme Court struck down Affirmative Action for college admissions, putting an end to racial discrimination in academia. But today, with Diversity Equity and Inclusion programs still all the rage, there seems to be no end to America's race relation issues.

Studies show the majority of self-professing Christians don’t hold to a Biblical worldview.

What is the solution to the chaos we see all around us?
