Abdu'l-Bahá, the son of the founder of the Bahá'í Faith, called on America to become a land of spiritual distinction and leadership in establishing the oneness of humanity.

In 1912, He traveled from coast to coast across America after a lifetime of imprisonment and persecution in the Middle East.

He gave a powerful vision of America’s spiritual destiny — to lead the way in establishing the oneness of humanity. He set out the spiritual requisites for attaining this destiny, including:

  • unity among the races
  • equality between women and men
  • a balance of material and spiritual progress
