Passport
About this show
America’s Great Lakes region fueled an unparalleled industrial revolution for nearly a century. However, this manufacturing dominance ended in the 1970s, when economic crises and technological innovation triggered widespread job and factory losses. Populations and cities shrank, and it became known as the Rust Belt. This documentary charts the growth and decline of this historic region.
