A look at Touro Synagogue, the oldest synagogue in the US and subject of a bitter dispute.

Rhode Island PBS Weekly's David Wright visits Touro Synagogue in Newport — the oldest synagogue in the United States and a symbol of the Ocean State's long heritage of religious freedom. However, the orthodox congregation that has worshiped there for more than one hundred years now faces eviction, as the synagogue finds itself at the center of a bitter dispute between landlord and tenant.
