    When this was filmed, The Androscoggin river was an open sewer and the Merrimack river ran red from the dyes used in the woolen mills.

Got to see it when I was little before it fell so I guess I'm lucky 😅 was born in 93 so I still remember it. If you want a really cool experience in NH ya just gotta keep an eye out for sneaky trails :P we have waterfalls and other cool ruins that I believe most don't know about

    I'm born-and-raised New Hampshire and have recently been getting into researching history and my personal family tree and ancestry. At the time this was filmed, my grandparents in Berlin would have both been 6 years old, and my grandmother's father (a former logger) would have been working at the paper mill, where my father also worked during summers. I remember waking up near the end of a long car ride to visit my grandparents to the very strong smell of the mill as soon as you get close to town.
    In addition to getting married on the UNH campus at their historic ballroom, being an alum is something I share with many family members including a great grandfather on my mother's side.
    It's very cool seeing some of these landmarks still standing roughly 80 years later, some barely even changed. Even for a (relatively) young person like me.

      The narrator is talking about when the state was 1) white 2) conservative and 3) culturally homogeneous. People got along with, and trusted, each other better. That was superior to today, where New Hampshire is multi-cultural, anti-white and a cultural zoo. Politicians pit groups against each other inciting discord. The nuclear family that aspired the best for their children has been replaced by single parent and LGBTQ freak show "blended" families producing neurotic children doped up on Ritalin among other things.
