In the final episode of Promised Land, we begin with the infamous "death tape," a chilling audio recording capturing Jim Jones’ final address, urging his followers towards "revolutionary suicide." Amidst the chaos, the tape reveals the heart-wrenching pleas and final moments of over 900 men, women, and children. We also explore the immediate aftermath, as the world grappled with the magnitude of the tragedy.
