Season 4: Race and Religion
Episode 1: Hinduism
Season 4 of "Roundtables on Race" is taking a bit of a departure from its usual format. As we take a season-long look at "Race and Religion," each episode will feature a different faith tradition, exploring its beauty and traditions, and its intersection with society, both in the United States and in countries of origin.
The season premiere explores Hinduism, one of the oldest faith traditions and practiced by approximately 1.2 billion people worldwide. Host the Rev. Kathy Walker is joined by Dr. Vijay Satnarine, the director of education strategy for the Hindu American Foundation, and Mr. Prashant Sheth, a member of the board of directors for Interfaith Action for Central Texas (iACT), for a fascinating conversation that shares the beauty of the Hindu faith, aspects of the faith you think you know that are actually misunderstood, concepts and tenets of the faith that may sound familiar, and how the historical intersection of Hinduism, law and society can be seen in the United States today.
