The Margaret Cho

Murderous White Coworkers with Jenny Yang


Listen Later

Margaret talks with comedian Jenny Yang about the Rock Springs Massacre of 1885 that left 28 Chinese people dead. Tensions between white coal miners and Chinese workers reached a boiling point. White workers perceived that the Chinese workers were taking their jobs (willing to work for lower wages) and led a riot and subsequent massacre that touched off a wave of anti-Chinese violence.

Also, they discuss the San Francisco man threatening Asian women at a bakery, Asian ghost stories and Chinese dragons.
