Absolutely fascinating. Thanks for sharing. In this seemingly all-video age, there is something even more powerful in the story captured in a single still image. At the end of the video, there are links to the Time 100 photographs series. Haven't seen these before. The first one is about photographer Lewis Hine and his series documenting exploitive child labor at the beginning of the 20th century. It appears there are 21 videos in this series and I intend to watch them all. Very inspirational.

Very interesting.
My wife is part Indian.
Some of her family worked on that building.

I remember reading about the ability of NY area Indians in high building work. I can't remember the specific tribal names and If I could, I'd hate to offend by misspelling.
