The Rise and Fall of an American Cult with Harrison Hill - IndoctriNation Podcast In this episode, Rachel Bernstein interviews journalist Harrison Hill about his debut book, “The Oracle’s Daughter: The Rise and Fall of an American Cult.” Hill shares how he connected to survivor Sarah Green through his brother in Brooklyn and how the book centers on Sarah’s escape from the Aggressive Christianity Missions Training Corps, a religious cult founded in California. He situates the cult within American religious extremism and explores why people join, stay, and leave, including how cults restrict trusting one’s senses and simplify life through binary “spiritual warfare.” Hill discusses the leaders Jim and Deborah Green, the group’s uniforms and ranks, the influence of “Aggressive Christianity,” parallels to the Salvation Army’s origins, and how Waco affected law enforcement responses.

46- #Waco Very enlightening documentary. I’ll admit, I wasn’t very familiar with Waco before watching this. I knew the basics, but seeing so much more detail about the horrific events was very eye opening. Not to say who was right and who was wrong, it’s just an overall devastating story! #FilmSky

Cults Like US: Why Doomsday Thinking Drives America The Festival hosted Jane Borden on March 13th in conversation with Stephanie Greene to discuss her book Cults Like US: Why Doomsday Thinking Drives America about the rise of cults in America. Longlisted for a Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction, this colorful and enlightening pop history explains why the eccentric doomsday beliefs of our Puritan founders still drive American culture today, contextualizes the current rise in division and extremism as a natural result of our latent indoctrination, and proposes the United States is the largest cult of all. Since the Mayflower sidled up near Plymouth Rock, cult ideology has been ingrained in the DNA of the United States. In this eye-opening book, journalist Jane Borden argues that Puritan doomsday belief never went away; it just went secular and became American culture. From our fascination with cowboys and superheroes to our allegiance to influencers and self-help, susceptibility to advertising, and undying devotion to the almighty dollar, Americans remain particularly vulnerable to a specific brand of cult-like thinking. With in-depth research and compelling insight, Borden uncovers the American history you didn't learn in school, including how we are still being brainwashed, making us a nation of easy marks for con artists and strong men. Along the way, she also revisits some of the most infamous cults in this country—including, the Branch Davidians and Love Has Won, presenting them—as integral parts of our national psyche rather than as aberrations. Jane Borden is an author, culture journalist, and editor. She contributes regularly to Vanity Fair, and has written for the New York Times Magazine and The Washington Post, among other outlets. Her book Cults Like US: Why Doomsday Thinking Drives America was published in March 2025 by One Signal Publishers. Her first book, I Totally Meant to Do That, was published by Crown. Before all of that, she was a culture editor at Time Out New York. She is also a professional editor, book coach, and ghost writer. Jane lives in Los Angeles.

Buchhandelspreis ohne Verleihung: Ein unwürdiges Ende Kulturstaatsminister Wolfram Weimer hat die Veranstaltung zum Deutschen Buchhandlungspreis abgesagt. Nicht nur dem Preis hat er nachhaltig geschadet.

"Dem wollte sich Weimer offenbar nicht aussetzen, was man als Notbremse werten muss, aber durchaus auch als feige bezeichnen kann."
