Roundtable: Who Defines 'Morality' in America?

The recent presidential election revived a long-simmering debate about the moral values shared by most Americans and how they are shaped by religion and politics. NPR's Tavis Smiley moderates a weeklong roundtable discussion on faith, religion and morality. On Monday, the focus is on who defines "morality" in America.

Panelists include:

» Bishop Vashti McKenzie, president of the Council of Bishops of the African Methodist Episcopal Church

» Bishop Harry Jackson, pastor of Hope Christian Church in College Park, Md

» Rabbi Michael Lerner of the Beyt Tikkun synagogue in San Francisco and editor of Tikkun magazine

» Bishop Noel Jones, pastor of the City of Refuge Church in Gardena, Calif.
