You’re a laborer buried in mud, forgotten by history, and paid in tokens that don’t buy enough soap. Tonight, you’ll live — and die — as one of the thousands of workers who carved the Panama Canal through tropical hell. You’ll feel the fever, the exhaustion, the weight of a system that saw your life as expendable.No plaques. No parades. Just disease, debt, and a trench that never stops collapsing.If you're still awake by the end of this story, you're either tougher than you look… or just too tired to care.#PanamaCanal #SleepStory #DrowsyHistorian #HistoricalSuffering #DarkHistory #CalmNarration #SleepWithHistory
