A One-Night Streaming Event: Help Us Make True Believer Available to ALL Before the Election!
True Believer, a new feature documentary touring the US
As her faith community betrays the Jesus they taught her to love, an evangelical filmmaker reckons with the ‘pro-life’ political identity she built her life on, and that threatens our very Democracy.
A Virtual Screening & Reproductive Justice Town Hall on October 29th, Exactly One Week Before Election Day!
In 2016, 81% of white evangelical voters voted for Donald Trump. That number rose to 85% amongst white evangelical, church-going voters in 2020. Thanks to Trump and his runningmate’s hateful, unhinged rhetoric, a lot of people are undecided about how they will vote. We know that this election will come down to a few thousand votes in less than a handful of states—our goal is to reach the critical voters who are undecided as they go to the polls, particularly those who have historically been single-issue (abortion) voters based on their religious beliefs, but who are now questioning how they want to vote moving forward.
“TRUE BELIEVER is one of the most important films of our time. It is not only a tool for healing and reckoning within the white evangelical community, but it is also the answer to, 'How we got here, and what's at stake,' for those outside of it. As a former church girl and lifelong political activist, I know that this film will be a catalyst to change and restoration.” - Lyn Davis Lear, Executive Producer, True Believer
Lisa Sharon Harper (Freedom Road), historian & public theologian Diana Butler Bass, Elaina Ramsey (Faith Choice Ohio), and sex educator Erica Smith, will participate in an post-screening discussion moderated by the film’s director, Kristen Irving.
