Prayer in Public: Muslim, Jewish, and Civic Leaders Respond

December 13, 2022 @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm EST

**What stance should religious minorities take when it comes to the role of
religion, ritual, and prayer in the American public square? Is it preferable
to accommodate religion, even if it hews to the majority Christian culture?
Alternatively, is it better to advocate for a neutral and even godless public
square?**
The recent Supreme Court case of Kennedy v. Bremerton School District has
brought this question to the fore once again and has evoked a range of
responses among religious minorities.
Join Hartman Fellows **Tamara Mann Tweel** , Program Director at The Teagle
Foundation, **Imam Abdullah Antepli** , Associate Professor of the Practice
of Interfaith Relations, Duke Divinity School and Sanford School of Public
Policy, and **Rori Picker Neiss** , Executive Director of the Jewish
Community Relations Council of St Louis, for a conversation about the meaning,
challenges, and opportunities of being a religious minority in 21st century
America.

_This program is part of _[ ** _Ideas for
Today_**](https://www.hartman.org.il/program/ideas-for-today/), _curated
courses by Hartman Institute scholars on the big Jewish ideas of this moment._
