Thursday’s first episode begins with the early period, a period when some Welsh immigrants in America, such as the poet Goronwy Owen of Anglesey, owned slaves.

Cymraeg Ambarel
1.3.17
Mae'n bwrw mor aml
mewn byd drycinog,
ond mae dy ffyn bob tro yn cloi'n
gromen berffaith, uwch fy mhen;
a than dy adain, caf hedfan yn unfraich,
drwy ddychymyg yr hil.
I rai, rwyt ti'n 'cau'n deg ag agor,
ond o'th rolio'n dynn,
mi roddi sbonc
i'n cerddediad fel Cymry;
ac mi'th godwn yn lluman main
i dywys ymwelwyr at ein hanes,
a thua'r byd amgen sydd yno i bawb...
Tydi yw'r ambarel
sydd o hyd yn ein cyfannu,
boed yn 'gored, neu ynghau
- dim ond i ni dy rannu....
