Abstract:

The profiled and pictured worship spaces, representing Islam, Greek Orthodox, Hindu, Catholic, and Jewish faith traditions, represent Charlotte’s religious diversity. The five houses of worship have at least one common mission: promoting social justice by helping to address systemic inequalities and resolve problems arising from these inequalities.
