The Earth Is the Lord's
Ever since the Mayflower pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock, immigrants have come to America to escape religious persecution: Amish and Mennonites, Jews and evangelical Christians, Huguenots from France, Baha'is from Iran, Chinese practicing their esoteric Falun Gong, Tibetan Buddhists. The idea of America as a haven for those seeking freedom to worship looms large in the American imagination. The program features a Tibetan woman who fled persecution by Chinese communists; Hasidic Jews who fled Nazi Germany; and the immigration of the Amish and Mennonite people to America more than 300 years ago.
