The 1620 Experience
Plymouth Rock Foundation is proud to endorse a project which is led by one of our Board Members, David Bradford.
David is a descendent of the Pilgrim Governor and historian, William Bradford. In addition, David’s expertise as an historian of the Pilgrims,
coupled with his desire to make known the principles they embraced from the Bible that made them unique among the explorers of the 16th and 17th
centuries, make this a project worth completing.
The 1620 Experience is an 8-part educational mini-series designed to promote the story of the Pilgrims in their own words. Each episode focuses on an aspect of the Golden Triangle of Freedom, and combines celebrity narrators and dramatic re-enactments of key events.
What sets The 1620 Experience apart from other Pilgrim projects is the desire to tell the challenging and uncomfortable aspects of the story.
These elements are important in order to model their faith and character, and demonstrate why they were as crucial to the foundation of the prosperous American culture as they are today.
After watching the promo video, we think you will agree that this project ought to be supported, and we encourage those who follow the Plymouth Rock Foundation to donate generously. It is in harmony with our mission to “preserve and propagate the Pilgrim story.” We pray its success will help America recover from her amnesia regarding her history, as well as be an inspiration for the nations of the world.

Remember the Pilgrims’ significance:
