89 - It's Hard To Be A Good Potato

from Under the Waves

Andrew and Michelle are tackling the deadliest shipwreck that caused the highest loss of life on the Great Lakes: the SS Eastland. While it's a doozy, it's a good story to remember and not let history forget about. Learn all about the twists and turns that led up to the fateful day in 1915 when the Western Electric company chartered the Eastland to help ferry over 2,500 of their employees for a fun day of picnicking. What started off as a celebratory morning quickly turned into a nightmare. Come learn about the coulda, woulda, shoulda's that might've made the whole thing preventable because hindsight really is 20/20.Haven Watch learn moreMinnesota Freedom Fund - ICE + Rights Resources click hereNational Immigration Detention Hotline (Freedom for Immigrants) Number | ICE Detainee Locator via US Immigration | Customs Enforcement Tools (If someone is detained) | How To Find Someone In Detention | Submit Bond Requests | Connect W/ Local Advocacy linkRed Cards That Have Your Rights (in 50+ Languages) That Can Be Printed For Free/Tarjetas rojas que tengan tus derechos (en 50+ idiomas) que puedas usar gratis haga clic aqui y desplácese hacia abajoFree Legal Support For People In ICE Detention | Interpreters To Represent Detainees hereFor Families + Communities | Know Your Rights | Plan Ahead | Act In Solidarity linkSites for Mental Health & Getting Through Tough TimesMental Health: cdc.gov/mental-health/caring/index.html + nimh.nih.gov/health/find-helpICE Immigration/Police/Know Your Rights: immigrantjustice.org/for-immigrants/know-your-rights/ice-encounter/Español: https://immigrantjustice.org/es/for-immigrants/know-your-rights/ice-encounter/General: https://www.211.org/Follow us on our SocialsInstagram: @underthewavespodcastFacebook: Under the Waves PodcastWebsite: www.underthewavespodcast.comSend us an email: [email protected] Us A Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/underthewavespodMake sure to share this episode with your favorite sailor!
