Episode 4: Religious Tolerance and The Colonies
Monday, July 23, 2018 at 01:04PM The colonies of Maryland, Delaware, and Pennsylvania are introduced this week, and we use them as a jumping-off point to talk about religious tolerance in the American Colonies. Maryland and Pennsylvania were created as safe havens for particular religions, and you'll find out how Delaware fits in.
Eight year-old Brady stops by to ask some great questions about religious freedom across all 13 colonies and the wonderful Ed Morrissey provides great answers and discussion.
