American leaders drove religious freedom forward--figures like James Madison, George Washington, the World War II presidents (Roosevelt, Truman, and Eisenhower) and even George W. Bush.  But the biggest heroes were the regular Americans – people like Mary Dyer, Marie Barnett and W.D. Mohammed -- who risked their lives or reputations by demanding to practice their faiths freely.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJust as the documentary \u003cem\u003eEyes on the Prize\u003c\/em\u003e captured the rich drama of the civil rights movement, \u003cem\u003eSacred Liberty\u003c\/em\u003e brings to life the remarkable story of how America became one of the few nations in world history that has religious freedom, diversity and high levels of piety at the same time. Finally, \u003cem\u003eSacred Liberty\u003c\/em\u003e provides a roadmap for how, in the face of modern threats to religious freedom, this great achievement can be preserved.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperOne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42956501221631,"sku":"9780062743152","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780062743152_s600x595.jpg?v=1780333755","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780062743152","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
