Next time you find yourself in LoDo or wandering around near Union Station, look down. Just below the streets of downtown, there's a maze of old, out-of-commission tunnels that used to connect our hotels, restaurants, and stores of yore. Glimpses of these alternative pathways still exist at street level, if you know where to look. Back in January, host Bree Davies spoke with Tracy Beach, author of “The Tunnels Under Our Feet: Colorado's Forgotten Hollow Sidewalks,” about this turn of the last century phenomenon. Beach explains what the tunnels were used for, who used them, and how to spot the remnants of these lost transit spaces today. This interview first aired on January 5, 2023. Bree and Tracy discussed the racist anti-Chinese riot of 1880 (which Bree talked with Dr. William Wei about on this show in 2021). Bree also mentioned Children's Hospital's new policy on gender-affirming surgery and “Casa Beer.” What do you think about Salt Lake City? Are they worthy of being our rival?

In Becoming Colorado: The Centennial State in 100 Objects (UP of Colorado, 2021), historian William Wei paints a vivid portrait of Colorado history using 100 of the most compelling artifacts from Colorado's history. These objects reveal how Colorado has evolved over time, allowing readers to draw multiple connections among periods, places, and people. Collectively, the essays offer a treasure trove of historical insight and unforgettable detail. Beginning with Indigenous people and ending in the early years of the twenty-first century, Wei traces Colorado's story by taking a close look at unique artifacts that bring to life the cultures and experiences of its people. For each object, a short essay accompanies a full-color photograph. These accessible accounts tell the human stories behind the artifacts, illuminating each object's importance to the people who used it and its role in forming Colorado's culture. Together, they show how Colorado was shaped and how Coloradans became the people they are. Theirs is a story of survival, perseverance, enterprise, and luck. Providing a fresh lens through which to view Colorado's past, Becoming Colorado tells an inclusive story of the Indigenous and the immigrant, the famous and the unknown, the vocal and the voiceless—for they are all Coloradans. William Wei is professor of history at the University of Colorado Boulder. His major works include Counterrevolution in China: The Nationalists in Jiangxi during the Soviet Period, The Asian American Movement, and Asians in Colorado. Wei has held a Rockefeller Fellowship, Mellon Fellowship, and Fulbright-Hays Fellowship and was the 2019–2020 Colorado State Historian.

Eight is an auspicious number in Chinese and other Asian cultures. That's why some leaders of the local AAPI communities chose yesterday, 8/8, to unveil their new plans to commemorate Denver's old Chinatown. It was at one point one of the largest Chinatowns in the American West, but now all that's left is a racist old plaque a few blocks from where the neighborhood once was. City Cast Denver host Bree Davies sits down with one of the organizers, Dr. William Wei, to hear how the old plaque brought the group together, why it's so important to enact change now, and what they hope for the future. Dr. William Wei is professor of history at CU Boulder, a former state historian, and the author of Asians in Colorado, which you should read if you want to learn more about the history of Colorado's Chinese community. As unveiled at the event at Zoe Ma Ma across from Union Station yesterday, here is Dr. Wei's proposed text for a new plaque commemorating Denver's old Chinatown: Denver's Historic Chinatown: 1869-1940 Of the over 20 Chinese communities that once existed in the American West, Denver's Chinatown was one of the largest and most prosperous. Chinatown's origins can be traced to an anonymous Chinese immigrant who arrived in Denver in June 1869. He was probably one of the Chinese railroad workers who were mostly responsible for building the western half of the famous Transcontinental Railroad that unified the country economically and culturally. Chinatown was located on Wazee Street between 15th and 17th Streets, extending up to 22nd Street. It was a flourishing frontier community that provided a wide range of ethnic goods and services in a welcoming environment to Chinese immigrants working in Colorado and the Intermountain West. The Chinese immigrants performed mainly physical labor such as working in mines and building infrastructure. Eventually, they were relegated to marginal livelihoods such as laundrymen and cooks. Even though there were comparatively few Chinese residents, the local white population perceived them as an economic and cultural threat. Chinese encountered racial hostility and were denied civil rights, economic opportunity, and social equality. This hostility gave rise to “The Chinese Question,” a national controversy over whether Chinese laborers should be allowed to immigrate to the United States. Local antagonism led to Denver's anti-Chinese race riot. On October 31, 1880, an estimated 3,000 to 5,000 Denverites descended upon Chinatown to destroy it and drive out the Chinese. During the mob's rampage, they lynched and beat to death a laundryman named Look Young. Though the murderers were brought to trial, they were acquitted of the crime. Despite continued tensions, most of the Chinese community remained to rebuild Chinatown. What sounded the death knell of Denver's Chinatown were national laws preventing Chinese immigrants from establishing families in America and even from entering the country. Ironically, Denver's anti-Chinese riot was cited as one of the reasons why the U.S. Congress enacted the disreputable Chinese Exclusion Act (1882) to ensure social stability. Since the end of World War II, Chinese and other Asian Pacific Americans have returned to Denver's lower downtown area to live and work. No longer confined to an ethnic enclave, they can now be found throughout the Greater Denver Metropolitan area and Colorado. Looking for more stories of Denver past, present, and future?

FOXCONN UNVEILS ELECTRIC CAR CHASSIS "Foxconn, the Taiwanese electronics contract manufacturer that's best known for assembling Apple products, has rolled out an automotive EV platform, part of a push to become a manufacturer of electric-car components. At the unveiling in Taipei, Foxconn Chairman Liu Young-way said he's targeting a 10 percent share of the global EV market as soon as 2025." says Autoblog: "The chassis is described as "open-source," with customizable elements including size, wheelbase, suspension type, and battery size. Partner automakers could fine-tune it to their needs, and Foxconn would assemble it for them. The company additionally said it plans to introduce a solid-state battery for EVs in 2024 that would be superior to today's lithium-ion electric-car batteries." Financial Times says: "The world’s biggest contract electronics manufacturer aims to become “the Android of EVs”, William Wei, chief technology officer, said at an event on Friday in reference to the open source operating system through which Google created a massive part of the global smartphone industry.

This price is before any government subsidy and includes a VAT of 27 %. After subsidies the price drops to a more reasonable 3.990.000 HUF (10.951 euros)." says Pedro at PushEVs: "Unfortunately we don’t know if the first units include DC-fast charging capability via CCS, which allows to charge this electric car from 0 to 80 % in 50 minutes, but usually limited series are the most expensive and better equipped versions."

Volkswagen is calling and/or emailing customers about the upcoming delivery." says InsideEVs: "Those will be of course be the 1ST edition cars, imported from Germany, as the local production is expected no earlier than in 2022. Some buyers will be pretty happy with the December delivery, as it should allow them to quickly get the eligible $7,500 federal tax credit in early 2021. Deliveries in January will require waiting until early 2022." https://insideevs.com/news/449482/us-first-vw-id4-arrive-december/ PORSCHE HAS ALREADY SOLD 10,000 OF ITS TAYCAN "The Porsche Taycan has been a strong seller around the globe in its debut year, and in fact the company has just announced that its total sales for the first nine months of the year have surpassed 10,000 units – to 10,944, to be precise." says auto123.com: "The best news for Porsche is that the Taycan’s sales are picking up steam. During Q3 of 2020 (or July to September), the pace of production picked up and sales rose to 6,464 units, accounting for 8.7 percent of all Porsches sold. That sales total is more than twice the previous quarter, and four times the first quarter of the year. If sales remain at their current pace, Porsche will surpass the 25,000 mark – and odds are sales will only grow further." https://www.auto123.com/en/news/porsche-taycan-2020-sales-10000-unites/67506/ PORSCHE MACAN ELECTRIC SPIED "Obviously, the rain and fog didn’t help our photographers on-site but nevertheless, we have an early look at the zero-emission crossover. From distance, it looks almost like a Cayenne Coupe" says Motor1: "according to preliminary information, the Macan Electric should go on sale at some point in 2022. To have the Leipzig factory ready for the Macan EV’s arrival, Porsche is investing more than $64 million in the expansion of the facility, including a new body shop." https://www.motor1.com/news/449635/2022-porsche-macan-electric-spied/ CUPRA EL-BORN SPIED TESTING "The Nurburgring is the place where all good hot hatches go to be tested, regardless of what powers them. Our spies just sent us a fresh batch of photos showing the upcoming hot version of the SEAT El-Born, which will bear a Cupra badge. There will be an equivalent spiced up variant of the Volkswagen ID.3, but the Cupra will come first; if you’re looking forward to owning a hot hatch underpinned by the VW group MEB platform, the Cupra El-Born will quell that desire first." says InsideEVs: " we don’t know how powerful it’s going to be, but its peak output could even be as high as 302 horsepower, and it may even feature a dual-motor all-wheel drive system. Its battery won’t be any bigger than the biggest already announced for the ID.3 and SEAT El-Born - a 77 kWh pack that should provide a WLTP range of about 500 km (310 miles) on one charge." https://insideevs.com/news/449703/cupra-el-born-spy-shots-nurburgring-testing/ You can listen to all 910 previous episodes of this this for free, where you get your podcasts from, plus the blog https://www.evnewsdaily.com/ – remember to subscribe, which means you don’t have to think about downloading the show each day, plus you get it first and free and automatically.

In this installment of Changing Denver Bit By Bit, we feature an interview Paul did with CU Boulder history professor William Wei for KGNU. It's all about Wei's new book "Asians in Colorado," and excerpts of it were featured on our recent season finale, on Hop Alley. The interview touches on Denver's old Chinatown, but also explores how the discrimination facing Asians in Colorado morphed from Sinophobia into Japanophobia in the 20th Century. Yes, that means there is discussion of Japanese internment in concentration camps, as Wei calls them, as well as former governor Ralph Carr. - Follow us on Twitter at @ChangingDenver.

On this episode of Changing Denver – the finale of season 1! – we figure out the connection between Denver’s old Chinatown and a new Chinese restaurant in River North. It turns out they have more in common than the name Hop Alley. - We are taking a couple months off after this episode to give some ongoing projects the time they deserve. All complaints about this will be interpreted as expressions of grief, so bring 'em on! You can also tell us how you feel in a review on iTunes. Just make sure all profanity-laced tirades are preceded by five gold stars. Thanks to everyone who made this first season happen. All the support and love has been so important. See you in season 2! - You can learn more about William Wei’s new book, Asians in Colorado: A History of Persecution and Perseverance in the Centennial State, here. CU Denver professor of History Tom Noel’s home page, including a full list of his Colorado-related publications, can be found here. You can read Jarod Ballentine’s review of Hop Alley here (he gave it a 7.5 out of 10), and find more of his reviews at The Infatuation. If you are as curious about Hop Alley’s food as we are, you can make a reservation here. - Our theme song is “Minnow” by FelixFast4ward. You can find more of his music on Soundcloud. Local bluegrass band Meadow Mountain provided two songs for this episode, “Homestead” and “Central,” which both appear on their new Homestead EP. You can hear them perform every Tuesday night at Cerebral Brewing. It’s called Bluegrass Tuesdays, and it seems like fun.
