The Black Madonna of Trinidad is known by many names, all reflections of the multicultural past and present of this island off the coast of Venezuela. The Miracle Mother is one, mainly because whatever one's tradition is, she is sought out because of her proven record of facilitating miracles. This episode explores the rich history of the Caribbean and the hope that peaceful, joyful coexistence between very different cultures can exist when people come together in the spirit of love and community. Europe is not the only place graced with Black Madonnas, and The Miracle Mother of Siparia is a delightful example of the healing influence this religious art form has on all who encounter them.
