You are invited to listen to our , “Blood on Gold Mountain” – a story from the 1871 LA Chinatown massacre, episode 1 release on Thursday March 24th, 2021. It is available on all major podcast directories: iTunes / Apple , Spofy, , Stcher, TuneIn.

This multi-episode podcast series about the 1871 LA Chinatown massacre commemorates the worst mass race lynching on the West Coast, when at least 20 Chinese immigrants killed in one night by a crowd of about 500 Angelenos, which accounted for nearly one fifth the male population of the city. This podcast series tells the story through the eyes of Yut-Ho, a young woman who arrives in LA as a refugee, only to become embroiled in a love intrigue, a gang war, and ultimately, the LA Chinatown Massacre. This little-known chapter of history finds eerie parallels to the vicious anti-Asian American attacks that are taking place today in the USA, spurred by racism and COVID-19 fears. Join us in the telling and the listening on the initial podcast release on Wednesday, March 24th, 2021, with following episodes in the series released every other Wednesday. hps://blood-on-gold-mountain.capvate.fm/
