American Experience

S27E11 The Pilgrims

Nearly four centuries later, the struggles the Pilgrims endured while building their new world continue to echo in modern America. Issues like the balance between faith and personal liberty, the divide between Church and State, and the cultural clashes sparked by immigration remain deeply relevant. This final television appearance of Roger Rees (1944–2015) features him as William Bradford, capturing the enduring resonance of those early challenges.
