Under the backdrop of our nation’s 250th anniversary, Our Seven Neighbors, season 5, explores the long, contested history of religious diversity in the United States—not as a feel-good celebration of pluralism, but as a hard-won achievement forged through conflict, exclusion, resistance, and moral struggle. Against the rising influence of Christian nationalism and the persistent myth that the U.S. was founded as a singularly “Christian nation,” this series offers a corrective grounded in historical reality. Hosted by Reza Aslan.

Season 3 of OUR 7 NEIGHBORS, hosted by Rev. Brian E. Smith, features stories gathered for our Rev. Jesse Jackson oral archive project. Each episode includes segments from our Chicago Civil rights leaders interviews, paired with voices from modern community, faith and social justice movements. This episode showcases a portion from an interview with Rev. David Wallace, one of the primary organizers of the Chicago Breadbasket Movement. Then Brian gets into conversation with Rev. Dr. Otis Moss, Pastor of the Trinity United Church of Christ. It's a stellar conversation you don't want to miss!
