Gold Rush Racism with Helen Hong

Margaret talks with comedian Helen Hong about the worst lynching in American History: the Chinese Massacre of 1871. They also discuss the misplaced rage that Asian Americans are facing and how the Atlanta Spa Shootings were the culmination of a year of racist dog whistling. Helen recounts a personal story about her own father being targeted for his race at a grocery store.
