1974: Karen Silkwood dies in mysterious car crash

Quote Of The Day
"Coleridge said of factory workers in the early factory system in England, "they die so slowly that none call it murder." But murder it is, whether sudden death as in the case of Karen Silkwood, or death following a long latency period and long illness and disability, as for so many of our industrial workers."
(Robert Sass)
