Description:
The video begins with footage of Ludlow, Colorado showing the landscape and building that are left. At Dawson Cemetery Nick Halamandaris explains that the silver grave markers have been put up by the coal companies for men who died in mine explosions. Roughly 140 miners died in the explosion of 1913 and over 200 in that of 1923. A comparison is drawn to Flanders field as being a moving sight to see. There are mostly Mexican, Greek, and Italian names on the crosses. Halamandaris suggests that people need to be made aware of what each generation sacrificed. Coal mining is a vital necessity and perhaps the most dangerous industry, after fighting wars. Even today it leads to accidents, black lung, and disability. He says Arizona and New Mexico donated land for the care of disabled coal miners when they became states. There is footage of the cemetery with no audio.
