When I think of coal-related accidents, nothing could top Aberfan.
Oh, my.
Once I pulled up an article the memory of hearing about it surfaced.
I was only a kid and it was hard thinking of so many kids being covered in that sludge.
Aberfan. What a horrific tragedy.
That disaster took place before I was born, but I first became aware of it through the “Fascinating Horror” YouTube channel. It was hard to wipe my mind around such an occurrence.
“The Royals” series had an episode about Aberfan. That episode was hard to watch.
The response by the National Coal Board was outrageous.
