"One World, One People" is the sixth episode and series finale of the American television miniseries The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, based on Marvel Comics featuring the characters Sam Wilson / Falcon and Bucky Barnes / Winter Soldier. It follows the pair as they team-up to fight the anti-nationalist Flag Smashers. The episode is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), sharing continuity with the films of the franchise. It was written by head writer Malcolm Spellman and Josef Sawyer, and directed by Kari Skogland.

Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan reprise their respective roles as Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes from the film series, with Emily VanCamp, Wyatt Russell, Erin Kellyman, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Danny Ramirez, Georges St-Pierre, Adepero Oduye, and Daniel Brühl also starring. Development began by October 2018, with Spellman hired to serve as head writer of the series. Skogland joined in May 2019. The episode sees Wilson accept the mantle of Captain America and wear a new costume, with the series' title changing to Captain America and the Winter Soldier in the end credits. Filming took place at Pinewood Atlanta Studios in Atlanta, Georgia, with location filming in the Atlanta metropolitan area and in Prague.

"One World, One People" was released on the streaming service Disney+ on April 23, 2021. The episode received mixed reviews, with praise going to the acting, visuals, and Wilson's character arc, but it was considered to be weaker than the previous episodes and some critics felt it brought the series to an unsatisfying end by not concluding the various plot points effectively and having an abrupt characterization shift for John Walker (Russell). The episode received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination.
