In this episode, we examine the devastating Wall Street bombing of 1920, one of the deadliest terrorist attacks in American history. On September 16, 1920, a horse-drawn wagon packed with explosives was detonated on the bustling streets of New York’s financial district, killing 38 people and injuring hundreds more. The blast left the heart of American capitalism in chaos, and its effects reverberated throughout the nation.
We’ll dive into the details of the attack, the aftermath, and the frantic investigation that followed, as authorities tried to uncover who was responsible for the bombing. Was it anarchists, a labor-related protest, or a foreign political group? Despite a massive investigation and numerous theories, the perpetrators were never brought to justice, leaving the Wall Street bombing an unsolved mystery.
Tune in as we explore the historical context of post-World War I America, the rising tensions of the time, and how this tragic event shaped the nation’s approach to terrorism and security in the years that followed. This episode uncovers the forgotten story of the Wall Street bombing—a tale of fear, intrigue, and a nation on edge in the early 20th century.
