47. Supernatural Hysteria and Superstition

In the latest episode of Blood on the Rocks, I talk about the 1871 Chinese Massacre in Los Angeles, California, USA where rising tensions caused by media and socioeconomic events led to the lynching of 17-20 Chinese men in the Calle de los Negros of the frontier town, Los Angeles. With 500 members of the mob and hundreds of witnesses, nobody was punished, and the massacre was hidden away.
