An extended EXTRAS episode with a few more stories I was not able to include in the Chicago's Original Chinatown 1870-1912 episode. Please listen to the main episode first.

WARNING: This episode contains stories of violence, including some we would refer to now as hate crimes. Parental guidance is suggested as well as for sensitive listeners to skip this one.
