KPCC, Southern California Public Radio, Interviews Scripps College Professor Ken Gonzales-Day

KPCC 89.3 FM‘s culture show, The Frame, features Professor of Art Ken Gonzales-Day as he discusses his newest art show exploring a dark chapter of California’s early history: the lynchings of hundreds of Mexican and Chinese immigrants. In his exhibition, which includes a series of striking photographs and a 90-second film, Gonzales-Day draws parallels between the lynchings of people of color in California between 1850 and the 1900’s and the recent shootings of unarmed Latino and African American men by police in Los Angeles and Ferguson, Mo.
