About this listen

They Knew Which Way to Run is a 7-episode podcast series that tells the story of those who were able to escape the destruction wrought by the gas leak  and those who weren’t. The Bhopal Gas Tragedy shows the start of the rot caused by unchecked capitalism, by environmental racism, globalization, and corporate greed. Decades later, the world still has not learned the lessons this disaster had to teach us. Using 80+ recorded interviews and interweaving personal reflection, conversation, and narration, Bhopali-American and Fulbright Scholar Apoorva Dixit and her childhood friend Molly Mulroy present the story of the Bhopal Gas Tragedy and of the Bhopalis who were shaped but not defined by the disaster, of hope, of resilience, and of memory.
