At Boston Bombing, Strangers Ran Toward Chaos, Not Away From It

On April 15, 2013, two bombs went off near the finish line of the
Boston Marathon, killing three spectators and wounding more
than 260 other people in attendance.

Four days later, after an intense manhunt that shut down the
Boston area, police captured one of the bombing suspects,
19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev; his older brother and fellow
suspect, 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev, died following a
shootout with law enforcement earlier that same day.

In what came to be known as “Black Sunday,” one of the
most devastating storms of the 1930s
Dust Bowl era
swiped across the region on April 14, 1935.

High winds kicked up clouds of millions of tons of dirt and
dust so dense and dark that some eyewitnesses believed
the world was coming to an end.

The storm caused immense economic and agricultural
damage. It is estimated that 300 thousand tons of topsoil
were displaced from the prairie area
