one fact. that. it's in the december morning and i'm on

a bus headed down south from chinatown new york there breathless driver speeds up on the ice who really it's i'm traveling across the states in a snowstorm because of a book. written over dishpan of twenty years back and forth from the mining areas to kentucky the book by a time in school or. is a monumental collection of moral history it tells the struggle words to round mining of coal when immigrants were to come to the area to work well paid but often ill fated jobs the book tells the story of harlan county that's where i'm going. to pop the.

land. i'm headed to the depot mary kom. i want to see what's left of the. three years since his first space it now that the us is shifting to nature and gas and coal mines for shutting down one after another i do not expect to find a lively city when i drive into hard i find it on a city where people are stuck like car turned in and black and white picture their

stories and there. have not changed much from those recorded by push scales research and that they are leaving me in this journey. with. well i really don't know what. they. would have been in thirty. plus at least two is. worth. but. in their place now. but.

even. it's. running on a farm or fall where. i got married when. i was sixteen years old and my husband was seventeen years old and lean mean myriad about six months then he went into the mountains and then six months after that dad and i went to korea accident. i had two week old son. lady who lived down the street here only. killed. berta but you know what it

really. low. where no. company wants to poll real that's georgia said also that cole ready for the christmas they would in their. shop the whole world will put down it much doesn't bring back that old wall or. the rope keothavong if. you know it much. two three tell the boat that look at it one through till it. shielded it. paid to see it there i would say oh. any other. field.

i find remnants of the mining history or longer memories of the casualties in the hard labor are alive in the stories told by the young and the like they're not had for the glory of collective struggle and hard work paid off. speaking to the local barson saloons you can see that their life was and still is mine mine is hard. they're ready for their collective legend and whether played a part where said when try. their survival first words disappearing before day i ask. for the rose parade rest. their spy brand is a bit of a work first year a skull shield but they first went sixty of them. so. it was work and i got them as my grandpa. six awful sweater.

but maybe i'm being told you. will. never lady may add it. you always had because you know if that's the life that you'll say. through. the water in the mine and soon you would have to drown through water it would get it over your knees and. the horses would have to pull through the moon and then they would be

laid to bow foliage for tracks sometimes when they'd run out of traffic people here named were you know anywhere. there's nothing for him today and there have been all the young pay for the turning to. alcohol. and. if it were someone would have a state and. say our government would get interested in this place this article to . thank. these young people could make it better if they know their neighbor day.

eight point seven downtown weisberg this is johnson bringing in sin arcade until ten o'clock tonight so i'm talking with some of the best music of two thousand and thirteen playing the song but all.

is holding its own group. in one thousand nine hundred i was the first woman to work in this one particular mine and my job was what they called the belt boy and then they started calling me the belt person because i was a female so when i would go into ground everybody would be kind of gathered to see . this woman coming out of the mines you know and then i remember my face would be all black with the coal dust and i was a little bit vain so i would have a handkerchief and i would wipe my face off before i would come outside so it would be all clean. so that it but the guys would always be looking for me to come out because it was just so amazing i guess to them to see a woman working in the mines. for it's all true.

for manalo no. i remember when i was in high school i loved earth science i love the mountains of anything to do with rocks and my our science teacher back then said there's going to be eight hundred years of coal and when he said that that's when things were good you know where everybody was working like the guys that worked in the mines they always had the nice cars like the camaro i remember thinking when i was younger that is sydney thing ever happened to coal mines here and that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in a million years i would see that and it's happened it's happened.

we. tried and it is what. i am and it's time to check. the. load out. now. thing. you know world a big part of the movie lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we

need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. in twenty forty you know bloody revolution to to crush the demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful political protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it still oil hiccup what if i mean you are liz put video of freedom in the new bill is that idea spilling even to the former ukrainian president recalls the events of twenty fourteen. of those who took it invested over five billion dollars to assist ukraine in these and other goals that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. i

went to her will go to look for the past from. the class struggle still going or. maybe go to. terms of the unions but for instance right now in terms of your buyer your tout that you came only. nobody's ever found you go get me. you're wasting your tan they are. very evil people you know they do things to fame days. they do things to the young

and the. sick if you noticed in season in the never standing. thing. all kentucky county is hardly and produce the most coal at a time in which most of what powered the united states came from kentucky. today the thirty three active mines in harlan employ less than one thousand. some of deals mines have even been converted into museums. laid off left with nothing since the ninety's manny leave off for they don't see any other options in the fuel handouts in time on employed and our customers

swill orange county was founded on coal and that's already there again it was a story. that is hard and can't is why they. basically is what orange county is a building code and they got coal there's nothing else here we don't have the luxury of the cities we don't have factories we don't and the reason why they are so settlers in the mountains we don't have the road boys and it's the largest same interest in me and in a way in that. i go flip hamburgers at the local mcdonald's or i go down here peace joy and make pizza. that's now don't pay my bills over horrors boom boom boys. you can walk straight fanny's lame only if you did more to give people goes both ways your so be. very strong and numerous give more for their

bodies everywhere you home. will. end in your day i'll give it a man is the. person sooner and get it we're going to do future and i'll. call my uncles that were gathered down that was it was working to save the city now stack it in years and years. and they tell me to get your guns will not be coming out of me what i'm doing. is i don't because i'm in here and you know there. are going to be a ghost and. there will be nobody here really rich or they will be with their deal that. we're now in the home. as i was eighteen years old it was around me and i. worked in a coma for five years and. two years service. waiter here and. my

two hours and thirty cents an hour rusty it was insistent how much around anymore. it was are very good. not as much money in the time. when my doing here i just got out of jail my. possession of stolen property. i'm not good. jails jail. as. i feed you three times a day. for. l.s.d. . i don't. all those things you.

need you. here with me. it's no. good. way. you know i'm down. this well i was teenager smith and jones he screamed this is through the roof his place he's really oh and the story carried a pistol when i was twelve year old enough carried will never see a steel. learned way now oh i. just tell him that way. so.

i'm the go to guy here the pawn shop here for the past five years we take everything from you know d.v.d.'s to. boat motors or whatever you want to madge and we have some motorcycles smoking the mining equipment like us say we would take a lot of that stuff you would sell a four hundred dollar mining helmet maybe once a week the lights daily but the fact of the mining mines are shutting down makes it difficult to sell that stuff because these were these were being sold to personal miners for their own use they're not in mining anymore course they're not buying that. line. here. where all of them are very accounting. ever. in the states is tough today it's hard to see any traces have deterred past their

once made hard in the tories. the county is still mostly dry and once one for a year people used to make moonshine knowledge drugs are on the rice a trust pain killers prescribed by doctors to treat danger and six miners now i'll ask a problem. there's a lot of people here this is a big region or a. nurse said. very much anything that makes them feel better and are they going to make them feel better. we have a lot of problems with items that are coming in that are stolen. maybe not just from drug users. but that is a problem and i say again it's desperation to try to get some money to maintain a habit you know and i think since all this you know all the mining and depression of the mining everything it's caused. a rising pills. it's the pills or the new

alcohol. we're talking about the forty inch in the. forty's and fifty's. so in the fifty's when we made. here in december we pick up the berries but the race we'll be able to hope for as we carry in yourself forward our again. the black berries will we got a quarter again we get a lift you know all. muddy from there to close and some food for them we're. mostly what with troy and the food was corn. lowered. so we will go a bit there will be we're also. in the beginning i would only have to take a few. days and it towards the end of my stay.

a borrowed pickup truck when i began to notice the road kill it was a dangerous road with more than its share of adventurous drivers and it was getting dark. i began to think of the many ways in which that was a presence in this land that anymore the road accidents and of course the core mines beyond. returning to new york they being behind harlan in an endless rain. i try to put together the pieces sober remote who are to i only get a glimpse off. i almost wonder where all that energy came from. the energy that lights up the luxury so. there was will leave the his hole for his work when hurt is little girls green.
