Empowerment: The Electrification of the Ozarks

Special | 57m 14s

The electrification of the Ozarks united us, employed, empowered, and forever changed us.

The creation, harnessing and distribution of electricity might be said to be one of mankind’s greatest and most impacting achievements. It’s no exaggerated or dramatic statement to say that figuratively and literally we’re “in the dark” without electricity. The electrification of the Ozarks united us. Employed and empowered us. And forever changed us.
