| Summary: | Using data from eight surveys collected between 1996 and 2016, this study examines race differences in the association between hearing sermons about environmental and other social-political issues and support for policies aimed at protecting the environment. While accounting for religious faith, political partisanship, and social-demographic characteristics, we find that Blacks and Hispanics are more likely to hear sermons about environmental and other social-political issues. However, hearing such messages more strongly associates with Whites supporting environmental conservation policies than it does for Blacks and Hispanics. |
