Interfaith group considers religion in America’s founding
An organization called faith250 has been quietly meeting in churches, synagogues and mosques in Northern Virginia for the past year to discuss historical texts across lines of faith.
Those texts include the Declaration of Independence, “The New Colossus,” which is the poem found on the Statue of Liberty, and the writing of Frederick Douglass.
Judy Woodruff reports as part of her America at a Crossroads series.
