Interdenominational task force backs religious education push
Leaders from 48 Protestant and Orthodox groups form a joint task force to promote objective religion courses in public schools. The move follows a Supreme Court ruling that allows study of religion as literature or history and aims to counter reluctance by educators and communities. The Methodist Church reports a slight decline to 10,918,910 members, keeping it the second largest Protestant body behind the Southern Baptist Convention.

Religious groups urged to fight anti Semitism across denominations
Movie producer Dove Schary called for a mass educational drive within Christian churches to combat anti Semitism and highlight Jewish roots of the Christian church. He cited victims and messengers as Jewish and praised efforts to remove prejudice from teaching materials. The American Jewish Committee released letters by James Baldwin and Ossie Davis deploring anti Semitism among Negroes. Davis argued that racism among Black nationalists is equally wrong.
