Fifteen Cents A Day
Manage episode 314843314 series 2801133
This episode takes us to the coal mines of West Virginia in the early 20th century, where one the largest labor uprisings in American history occurred, resulting in hundreds of deaths, thousands of people losing their homes, a march of armed miners to the state capital, and a pitched battle which took place over five days in which over one million bullets were fired.
Curious? Want to know exactly what started this chain of events? Well, this one is a longer one, but if you have about half an hour, give the episode and listen and let me know what you think!
Audio mixing done by Craig Murdock, as always! At least, since season 2.
