About this listen
This week we discuss the Buffalo Creek Disaster, a disastrous flood caused by the negligence of the Buffalo Mining Company and stockholders, causing 125 people to die and hundreds of others to lose their homes.
But the silver lining of this story is that the survivors banded together and fought back with a lawsuit seeking damages for both their physical losses and mental suffering, and succeeded! We love an underdog story! This week we lay the groundwork for this victory.
