De Koude Oorlog, de Drooglegging, de Gold Rush, de Ruimtewedloop. Elk aspect van je leven – de woorden die je spreekt, de ideeën die je deelt – is terug te voeren op onze geschiedenis, maar hoe goed ken je eigenlijk de verhalen die Amerika hebben gevormd? We nemen je mee naar de gebeurtenissen, de tijden en de mensen die onze natie hebben gevormd. En we laten je zien hoe onze geschiedenis hen, hun families en jou vandaag de dag beïnvloedt. Gehost door Lindsay Graham (niet de senator). Van Wondery, het netwerk achter American Scandal, Tides of History, American Innovations en meer.

On Valentine’s Day 1929, seven men were gunned down in a Chicago garage in an attack that stunned the nation. Photographs of the bloody scene appeared on front pages across the country, and the public reacted with horror. Even in Chicago—a city hardened by daily gang violence—the message was clear: this was different.
City officials were under intense pressure to respond, and suspicion quickly fell on the city’s most powerful gang leader, Al Capone. But proving who ordered the hit would be far more difficult than expected. And as investigators struggled to build their case, the fallout from the massacre would change Chicago—and Capone’s fate—forever.
