The righteous, arduous journey to freedom.

May 23 – December 7, 2025

The Declaration of Independence declares that “all men are created equal… and are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” Faith & (in)Justice traces America’s two-and-a-half-century struggle for equity and the role of the country’s three largest religions – Christianity, Islam and Judaism – in that struggle.
