Should Religious Symbols Be Allowed on Public Land?

By Louise I. Gerdes

If a public space is open to one religion, shouldn't it be open to all? Did the founders of our nation intend to forbid religious symbols on public land? What is the establishment clause, and should its existence permit the alteration of historic memorials? Supporting Social Studies curriculum, this informational anthology captures the spirited debate regarding religious symbols and public land, offering readers a variety of perspectives on the topic.
