Human Rights, Civil Liberties, and Apocalyptic Thinking - 3

A Speech by Chip Berlet

This audio program is part three of a speech I gave in 2006.

http://www.cberlet.info/audio/2006/berlet-omaha-2006-03.mp3

The full title of this speech was originally: "Theocracy, Christian Nationalism and Civil Liberties: Church and State in the New Millennium."

The event was co-sponsored by Nebraska REASON (Rationalists, Empiricists and Skeptics of Nebraska), and the Nebraska Chapter of American United for Separation of Church and State.

The speech was delivered in Omaha, September 20, 2006 at REASON's 7th Annual Fall Forum held at the Durham Research Center on the University of Nebraska Medical Center campus.

The introduction is by Tim Butz, former executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Nebraska and an old friend and ally.

The speech is divided into three segments, and has been edited.

This is part three.

Name: Chip Berlet
Location: Boston, Massachusetts, United States

As a teenager in the 1960s, I joined the civil rights movement and helped run a church-based coffee house in suburban New Jersey. Later I was active in the movement against the Vietnam War. I dropped out of college to work in the underground and alternative press and served on the board of the Underground Press Syndicate. In recent years I have written scholarly articles on right-wing social movements, apocalypticism, and neofascism. I am on the board of the National Committee Against Repressive Legislation and on the advisory board of the Center for Millennial Studies.
