A Documentary on the Origins of Religious Freedom in America

Church and State: Roger Williams and the Founding of Freedom of Religion explores the life, beliefs, and lasting influence of Roger Williams, the 17th-century theologian, political thinker, and founder of Rhode Island.

Long before the First Amendment, Roger Williams argued for:

  • Freedom of conscience

  • Religious liberty for all faiths

  • A strict separation between church and state

His radical ideas challenged the religious establishment of Puritan New England and laid the groundwork for principles that would later be enshrined in the U.S. Constitution.

This documentary reveals how Williams’ belief that “forced worship stinks in God’s nostrils” helped shape one of the most important freedoms in modern democratic societies.
