The Aftermath: The Aberfan Mine Disaster
New Guest Expert! For this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca digs a little deeper into the Aberfan Mine Disaster with Professor Iain McLean. Iain is Professor of Politics at Oxford University and co-author of the book Aberfan: Government and Disasters. He helps us understand the culture and dynamics playing out in these mining villages at the time and reiterates the blatant denial and negligence by those in positions of authority. Afterward, Producer Clayton Early stops by to see if the verdict holds up.
