CULTS: The Night Jim Jones Ended the World: Peoples Temple Pt. 1

Jim Jones told his people he loved them. He built a church that
preached racial equality and social justice at a time when those
words carried weight. Then he moved nearly a thousand followers
to a jungle compound in Guyana and called it paradise. On
November 18, 1978, 918 people died at Jonestown — including 304
children — in a mass poisoning Jones called a revolutionary act.
We trace the full arc of the Peoples Temple: the idealism that
drew people in, the terror that kept them from leaving, and the
single worst loss of American civilian life until September 11,
2001.
