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.
