Join us as Newsweek managing editor Jon Meacham discusses
religion, one of the most pervasive yet least understood forces in
American life. With reference to his best-selling book, American Gospel,
he will use the Founding Fathers’ insistence on religious liberty to
illuminate conflicts at work in our country as we approach the first
wide-open presidential election since 1952.
