Our free app brings history to life in the City of Brotherly Love. Philadelphia is widely known as the birthplace of American democracy, but it is also the birthplace of American religious freedom. The city’s Quaker founder, William Penn, established a colony that welcomed people from a wide range of religious commitments. By the time of the American Revolution, Philadelphia was the most religiously diverse city in the U.S. The experience of diversity greatly influenced the nation’s founding commitments to religious freedom. This app will uncover stories and experiences from a wide range of Americans, exploring the complex role that religion plays in today’s diverse democracy.
