Eliza Griswold: The Line Between Christianity and Islam
The 10th parallel, the line of latitude 700 miles north of the equator, is a geographical and ideological front line where Christianity and Islam collide: More than half the world's 1.3 billion Muslims live along it, as do 60 percent of the world's 2 billion Christians. Investigative journalist and poet Eliza Griswold, author of The Tenth Parallel, examines the area's complex relationships of religion, land, and oil; local conflicts and global ideology; politics and martyrdom; and faith and violence in the contemporary world. Presented by the Town Hall Center for Civic Life, with University Book Store. Series media sponsorship provided by Publicola. Series supported by The Boeing Company Charitable Trust and the RealNetworks Foundation.
