  5. A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt

    It is, I am afraid, true that frequently various religious groups endeavor to exert pressures and control over different legislative and educational fields. It is the job of all of us to be alert for such infringement of our prerogatives and prevent any such attempts from being successful. Like all our freedoms, this freedom from religious-group pressure must be constantly defended.

    Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962) American politician, diplomat, activist; First Lady of the US (1933–45)
    Memoir (1961), The Autobiography of Eleanor Roosevelt, Part 4, ch. 43 “Unfinished Business”

  9. Persecution of the Latter-day Saints

    In the 1830s and 1840s, Latter-day Saints faced severe hostility in Missouri and Illinois amid religious, economic, and political conflict. Missouri’s governor ordered them treated as enemies and “exterminated or driven from the state”; thousands fled to Illinois. Tensions later engulfed Nauvoo. In 1844 an armed mob stormed Carthage Jail and killed Joseph and Hyrum Smith. Violence continued, helping drive the Saints’ mass departure west. #religiousfreedom
