episode “Built Around Coal” cover

Beskrivelse

In the coal towns of southern West Virginia, everything revolved around the mines. According to this firsthand perspective, companies like U.S. Steel focused on keeping coal moving — and that meant people from all backgrounds worked side by side. Black families, white families, Mexicans, Italians, and others all played a role in building communities like Gary and the surrounding areas of McDowell County. This conversation reflects on the jobs, visibility, and strong sense of community that existed in towns built around coal.  Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2573714/support] "Empowering Every Gen"
