Muddied Water: 1919 explored a city divided by the conditions that led to the Winnipeg General Strike. The flu pandemic that hit the city one year before served to emphasize many of the inequities in our society at that time, and now, 100 years later, the COVID-19 pandemic is doing the same.

In this bonus episode of Muddied Water: 1919 we consider the parallels of a city struck by pandemics, 100 years apart. We see how the crises can serve to divide us, and also give rise to social unrest.
