The letters in this remarkable collection, written by religious scholars representing Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, and Sikh traditions, remind us of fundamental American values sorely threatened today, as our nation is riven by deep socio-political divisions. . . . A clarion call, not only to our leaders in Washington, but to us 'the people,' to enact the values that have made our nation a beacon of promise-freedom, justice, hospitality, tolerance, respect, and equal rights for all people. Their call is both timely and urgent. * William Madges, Xavier University *
