Who’s to blame for the Monongah Mining Disaster?
This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) speaks with comedian Connor Ratliff about the 1907 Monongah Mining Disaster in West Virginia which claimed the lives of over 360 men and left over 1000 children without fathers. A very tragic origin story for what we know now as Father’s Day. Is this yet another story of Profit Over People? Did a pattern of exploitative hiring practices lead to dangerous working conditions? And who is Grace Golden Clayton and why is she getting the Big Clap? Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early join the conversation.
