    Title: Kevin Kruse and Julian Zelizer, Fault Lines (recorded live at the Decatur Book Festival) Episode: 66 Podcast: Half Hour of Heterodoxy Transcript Kevin Kruse and Julian Zelizer appeared at the AJC Decatur Book Festival this year to talk about Fault Lines: A History of the U.S. Since 1974. This was recorded on September 1, 2019 at the First Baptist Church of Decatur. [Applause] Chris Martin: Thank you, Debra, for that introduction and thank you all for coming today. As Debra mentioned, I’m affiliated with Georgia Tech. I also host a podcast called Half Hour of Heterodoxy. Both Kevin and Julian have been on that podcast. Kevin’s episode was shortly after New Year’s Day and Julian’s episode was shortly after Valentine’s Day. I also want to mention that we are recording today’s session so this will be an episode on the podcast soon. So the Q&A session will be recorded. If for any reason you don’t want your question featured on the podcast, you can talk to me afterwards and I’ll make sure it’s not on there. Both of you probably know this already about their background but they are both historians of Princeton University. This is Kevin’s second visit to the Book Festival. He spoke here about ten years ago about his first major book, White Flight: Atlanta and the Making of Modern Conservatism. He is also the author of One Nation Under God: How Corporate America Invented Christian America, which was published in 2015. This is Julian’s first visit here.
