Join Katie and Ari Babbick as they unravel the story of the Texas City disaster, a colossal explosion that shook the Gulf Coast in 1947. This episode of Catastrophe Chronicles dives deep into the chain of catastrophic events starting with the SS Grand Camp explosion and the aftermath that forever changed Texas City. Discover how the chemistry revolution and the mishandling of dangerous chemicals like ammonium nitrate led to one of the largest industrial disasters in U.S. history.
Explore the harrowing tales of residents and workers caught in the chaos, the racial and social dynamics of post-war Texas City, and the legal battles that followed in a bid for justice and accountability. With a mix of historical insights and firsthand stories, this episode sheds light on a disaster where everything truly was bigger in Texas, and where the lessons learned were as explosive as the events themselves.
