What is required of us as faithful people in a world where inequity is very real and the distance between the richest and poorest is our nation is growing. What is justice!? And how can faithful Jews, Christians, and Muslims pursue justice? Welcome to Abraham's Table.

Imam Shaheed, Rabbi Uriarte, and Rev. Skidmore reflect on the national 250th anniversary. How do people of different faiths talk about our nation's shared history as Americans? What is the relationship between our faith, our personal history, and the whole history of our nation?
Rabbi Uriarte, Imam Shaheed, and Rev. Skidmore are joined by the Executive Director of the Anne Frank Center on the campus of The University of South Carolina, Dr. Doyle Stevick, to discuss what we learned from touring that exhibit.
