The largest labor uprising in American history happened in the southern hills of West Virginia in the summer of 1921. 10,000 coal miners rose up against the mine owners and their hired detectives/mercenaries/thugs known as the “mine-guards''. On their “March to Mingo” the miners are stopped at Blair Mountain and days of guerrilla fighting ensue. Will the union fighters come together to defeat their bosses? Listen in to learn all about Mother Jones, mining music, and the Baldwin-Felts Detective Agency in this outrageously overlooked tale of the Coal Wars.
