GRITtv: Morals, Motivation and Movements: What the Left Can Learn from Religion

One year ago, Americans were energized to elect Barack Obama president, casting more votes than had ever been cast in a U.S. election. Now it's election day again, and with Democratic candidates facing tough races in several states, we take a look at what the left can learn from religious organizations, who manage to keep people coming back week after week. Does religion have a place in social justice movements, and does the right have a lock on religious motivation to act? Joining us to debate the proper place of religion and spirituality on the Left are Michael De Dora, the Rev. Osagyefo Sekou, Kim Gandy and Rabbi Michael Feinberg.
