AFTER THE PIT !! To be a coal miner is to have a unique perspective on life outside the pit. After the shift
is done, after the years are put in, or after time off is approved.
These men of the dark, with families and friends to care for above ground, regaled
many a kitchen party crowd with the songs and stories of their pick and shovel ways.
And so, the coal miners’ legacy was passed around in spoken word and melody; the
ways we understand it the best.
Come with us as we explore life for the coal miner…after the pit.
