About This Trend

The Episcopal Church is a mainline Protestant denomination and a member of the worldwide Anglican Communion, based in the United States. It is divided into nine provinces and has a long history of advocating for social justice and human rights.

The Episcopal Church is trending due to its current stance on refugee resettlement, particularly its refusal to comply with a federal government directive to help resettle white South Africans granted refugee status, as well as its ongoing advocacy against apartheid and other social issues. .
