Eboo Patel on the spirituality of diversity

Eboo Patel joins Kerri today. He's a founder and leader of the InterFaith Youth Core and a member of President Barack Obama's Advisory Council on Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships.

He's a proponent of religious diversity and argues that his religion, Islam, is open to diversity. "It's a part of our faith....trying to see the breadth of God that is in (others). That God made humankind, different nations and tribes that we may come to know one another."

You can hear more on this in a video from Huffington Post It's short. Just two minutes.
