America's New Religious Landscape

Since the 1965 Immigration Act, the United States has emerged as the world’s most religiously diverse country. The stories, perspectives, interviews, and images featured in this program culled from Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly offer an opportunity for informed dialogue about encountering these religions, both ancient and new, and appreciating their complexity. In-depth segments filmed at locations around the country spotlight emerging communities of Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims, and Hasidim. Diana Eck, professor of comparative religion at Harvard University, discusses what this increased diversity means. (60 minutes)
