On July 4, 1914 - An explosion demolished the upper stories of an apartment building in East Harlem, killing anarchist Arthur Caron and several colleagues. Caron had been among those who protested the involvement of the Rockefeller family in April's "Ludlow Massacre." It appeared that Caron and his associates were building the bomb meant to kill John D. Rockefeller Jr., when it exploded.

(The Ludlow Massacre occurred April 20, 1914, when Colorado state troops and a private force hired by a Rockefeller-owned coal mining company attacked and destroyed a tent camp of striking miners and their families.)

An official report stated that at least twenty-five people - including fourteen children and two women - perished in the massacre. Earlier reporting put the death toll at a minimum of forty-five people, with women and children accounting for thirty of those deaths.

The Legacy of Devil Bill Rockefeller

This is to be a post about the Rockefeller Family (and don’t worry, there are pop culture angles, which ought to be obvious.) It’s customary to pick up the narrative with John D. (1839-1937), but I came across a delicious factoid when putting together my recent podcast about medicine shows that forever overwrote the conventional story in my own head, and I hope will find widespread adoption.
