The Student Life on Instagram: "Hundreds of 5C students, Pomona College dining hall workers and local labor organizers gathered at Frary Dining Hall on Labor Day in support of recent calls for wage increases. The workers have been negotiating for better contracts over the last few months. They said the college’s recent counter-offer is inadequate, citing the high cost of living in Los Angeles County as inflation is on the rise and gas prices remain high. Full story at the link in bio.

KHOL on Instagram: "140 years ago this summer, one of the most violent bouts of anti-Chinese violence in U.S. history rocked a town in southwestern Wyoming, then one of the most diverse places in the West. Labor tensions had boiled over in the Union Pacific Railroad company town of Rock Springs. An argument over who had the best work opportunities in the railroad’s coal mines erupted in mob violence. Within a few hours, the mob killed 28 Chinese workers and injured another 14. Without a chance run-in, Grace and Ricky Leo would have likely never learned about the massacre, or that they have ties to it, despite growing up in Rock Springs. In 2019, archaeologist and Western Wyoming Community College professor emeritus Dudley Gardner and later Grinnell College professor Laura Ng told them that of those killed, almost half were Leos. Grace and Ricky recently returned to Rock Springs to join an archaeological dig with Grinnell College researchers, along with a few other descendants. They want to better understand not just the violence against the Chinese but also, what it meant to have two feet in vastly different worlds where work was in Wyoming and family in China. Unpack how the Leos are reviving a past some would rather keep buried and the region’s approach to immigration in this week’s “Jackson Unpacked”, available wherever you get your podcasts. 📷: (Jenna McMurtry / KHOL) #immigration #history #wyoming #podcast #jackson #unpacked #news #radio #891khol"87 likes, 1 comments - 891khol on August 8, 2025: "140 years ago this summer, one of the most violent bouts of anti-Chinese violence in U.S. history rocked a town in southwestern Wyoming, then one of the most diverse places in the West.
