VIDEO: “Religious Liberty in American History and Ideals,” by Charles Haynes

Charles Haynes, vice president of the Freedom Forum Institute / Religious Freedom Center, talks with K-12 public, private and parochial school teachers from across the USA as part of ICNY’s “Religious Worlds of New York” summer institute. The institute helps teachers teach about the everyday lives of American religious communities. In the course of the three-week institute, teachers hear from leading scholars of religion, meet with diverse religious leaders, visit local houses of worship, explore the religious life of the city, and develop their own religious diversity curriculum projects. This #NEHSummer Institute is sponsored by the National Endowment for the Humanities, and Union Theological Seminary.
