In the post-lynching period, Duluth's already small number of African Americans grew smaller — and has never grown to more than 3 percent of the city's population. Jeanine Weekes Schroer, an assistant professor of philosophy at the University of Minnesota Duluth called Duluth a “sundown town” — a place where its lack of diversity seems accidental, but can be tied to historic events. While creating this podcast, multiple racially-motivated events happened in the United States — and as close as Minneapolis, where George Floyd died after a police officer detained him by kneeling on his neck for nearly nine minutes. “I think lynchings happen today all the time,” Weekes Schroer said. “That is to say, the practice of white people who take themselves to be acting with moral authority, ending the lives of brown and black people that in ways, that in retrospect, or even at the moment in the eyes of everyone else involved seem clearly to be the opposite of carrying out of justice — seem clearly to be to the rest of us violations of justice.” The Duluth Lynchings is edited by Samantha Erkkila and is a product of the Duluth News Tribune. This episode includes reporting by Samantha Erkkila, Brady Slater, Melinda Lavine, Christa Lawler and Clint Austin. Excerpts of books and newspapers are read aloud by Barrett Chase. Music for the podcast is “We Three Kings,” composed by “Rudy” Perrault and performed by the Gichigami Piano Trio with Josh Aerie on cello, Sam Black on piano and Laurie Bastian on Violin.

Last week when we recorded this episode, the Northland was experiencing continuous days of temps well into the negative teens. Add the windchill to that and it was around 30 below outside. But that didn't stop this week's guest from enjoying winter activities in the snow. Because of his job, Duluth News Tribune photographer Clint Austin is regularly outside taking photos for the newspaper. But even before he gets to the newsroom, he is outside on his fat bike, or making snow at Chester Park. Hear what Clint has to say about making the most of living in Duluth and the Northland during the winter. He also shares some tips on the best clothing and how to take the best winter photos.  What is your favorite part of winter in the Northland? Do you have any tips on how to enjoy the cold and snow for those who don't especially like it? Let us know at podcast@duluthnews.com
