30 Years Ago The Oklahoma City Bombing Changed The Nation Ceri Isfryn From National Geographics

  • Summary

  • On April 19, 1995, the deadliest act of domestic terrorism in U.S. history devastated the nation, claiming 168 lives—including 19 children—and injuring hundreds more. The bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building shattered families and changed America forever. Now, 30 years later, National Geographic has unveiled the trailer and key art for its new three-part docuseries, OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING: ONE DAY IN AMERICA, a raw and unflinching account of that tragic day, told by those who lived through it.

    OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING: ONE DAY IN AMERICA features a rare archive and powerful first-hand testimony from witnesses—some sharing their stories for the first time. Former President Bill Clinton and former Oklahoma Gov. Frank Keating reflect on leading a nation in mourning, while survivor Amy Downs relives the harrowing experience of being trapped in the rubble for hours. Edye Raines recalls the frantic search for her two missing children, and first responders, including district fire chief Mike Shannon, recall the desperate fight to save lives. FBI Special Agent in Charge Bob Ricks describes the race against time to find the bomber and bring him to justice. The series provides an intimate yet sweeping portrait of survival, courage and the pursuit of justice in the face of an unthinkable tragedy.
