Sounds of Religion

Guests: Isaac Weiner, Professor of Comparative Studies, The Ohio State University, Co-Director, American Religious Sounds Project; Amy DeRogatis, Professor of Religious Studies, Michigan State, Co-Director, ARSP During the isolation of this pandemic, religious experience has looked different. Felt different. Sounded different. For instance, Catholics in Milwaukee banged their pots and pans along with the ringing of church bells on Easter Sunday. Audio from that day is part of the American Religious Sounds Project which has been tracking the sound of religion during the pandemic. (Originally aired May 27, 2020).
