In the sweltering September of 1934, textile workers across the South rose up in one of the largest labor strikes in American history. In Honea Path, South Carolina, their demand for dignity was met with bullets. This episode reconstructs the day National Guard-backed forces opened fire on unarmed strikers, killing seven and wounding dozens more. We trace the complicity of mill owners, the silence of local officials, and the generational trauma that followed. Through survivor testimony and archival reckoning, we ask: what does justice look like when the town itself was built on denial?
