U.S. Industrial Alcohol, owner of the Boston molasses facility featured in Dark Tide, distilled the liquid into industrial alcohol for use in the manufacture of explosives. At tonight’s program, Carrie Brown explores weapons technologies going back to the Civil War. New machinery and methods for producing guns with interchangeable parts enabled the North to produce over a million rifles, along with tens of thousands of pistols and carbines. After the war, with the system of mass production perfected, new factory technology and print media fueled the development of mass consumerism. Find out about the surprising role of Vermont and New Hampshire in producing industrial technology that won the war and changed American life.

The Great Molasses Flood took place 13 days after Calvin Coolidge took office as Governor of Massachusetts. Eight months later, Boston police officers went on strike, causing two days of mob rule in the city. Coolidge’s handling of the strike brought him national attention and, a year later, selection as Warren Harding’s running mate. Tonight we’ll screen a film about the Boston Police Strike, then Coolidge himself (portrayed by Tracy Messer) will answer your questions about the story.
