Inspired
Inspired is the nation's leading public radio show about faith, ethics and spirituality. Each week we offer you analyses of the big headlines alongside lesser-told stories – those of Orthodox Jewish artists and African-American atheists, Muslim feminists and spiritual seekers. Through these stories, a rough sketch of our country’s religious landscape begins to emerge. It’s a marketplace of beliefs and ideas too complex for sound bites, and too important to ignore.
In “Prague Winter,” the former Secretary of State reflects on her Jewish ancestry, which she didn’t discover until she was vetted for the White House.
In January of 1997, the Washington Post published a story that stunned even its subject. They discovered that soon-to-be Secretary of State Madeleine Albright’s Czech family was Jewish, and that over twenty of her relatives had died in the Holocaust.She joins us to talk about her reaction to the news, the moral lessons she learned from her parents, and why religion looms large in international diplomacy. From May 2012.
