Wes Fryer in Charlotte shares a Heal Our Culture update focused on maintaining hope through community and wise voices, including a choir concert and Black History Month sermons he posted online. He discusses the U.S. attack in Iran that reportedly killed Iran’s supreme leader, warns about misinformation, and demonstrates an AI fact-checking “super prompt” by Mike Caulfield to rebut a viral meme about Clinton, Obama, and Biden enabling Iran’s nuclear program. He recommends the Straight White American Jesus podcast episode (Feb 27, 2026) to critique what he calls “un-Christian nationalism,” then covers Pentagon pressure on Scouts of America over DEI and the removal of the Citizenship in Society merit badge. He also describes an AI ethics clash involving Anthropic’s refusal to allow unfettered military use without guardrails, and invites viewers to advocacy resources and the March 4–5 Thrive Conference.
