On September 16, 1928, a powerful major hurricane came ashore in the Palm Beach region of South Florida. As it crossed the state diagonally, water from Lake Okeechobee was pushed into the southern communities on the front end of the hurricane and then the northern communities on the back end. This resulted in thousands of lives being lost and eventually the implementation of the Herbert Hoover Dike, which today protects cities like Belle Glade from storm surge.
In this video, we visit two mass graves where mostly black migrant workers were buried.
