The Sanctified Hill Mudslide - a podcast by Steve Gilly, Rod Mullins

Sanctified Hill was a section of Cumberland, Kentucky, where many retired African American miners and their families resided in homes many had built themselves. In 1972 heavy rains fell across Appalachia, resulting in flooding and, in the case of Sanctified Hill, a terrible disaster.

Today we tell that story.
