Description: West St. Paul, just south of Downtown St. Paul, was always an area that reflected the most recent immigrants to Minnesota and the Twin Cities.

West St. Paul soon became the largest Mexican community in the state, making it easier for other Spanish-speaking immigrants to find a familiar space in Minnesota.

UMN Students Stood Their Ground for Racial Justice in 1969

Title: UMN Students Stood Their Ground for Racial Justice in 1969
Runtime: 3:29
Date posted: 6 years ago
Description: In 1968, after a long history of mistreatment of Black students at the University of Minnesota and the recent assassination of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., students engaged in a series of negotiations with, then president, Malcolm Moos for the support of Black students through scholarship funding, a reexamination of athletics policies and the creation of an African American Studies department. When those negotiations failed, roughly 70 students staged an occupation of the U of M’s administration building, Morrill Hall on January 14, 1969. After a 24-hours of barring anyone from entering the building, the student’s demands were met, one of which resulted in the African-American studies department. One of the first and longest lasting Black studies departments created during this period of national student movements.

Everyone Is Wrestling with COVID-19 Evictions

Title: Everyone Is Wrestling with COVID-19 Evictions
Runtime: 4:09
Date posted: 6 years ago
Description: Every year, more than 17,000 people are evicted in Minnesota. Data from the state Judicial Branch shows that the average has decreased over time, yet nearly half of those evictions come from Hennepin and Ramsey Counties.

This year, more than 3,000 evictions were filed across the state before Governor Walz ordered a temporary pause. Cases dwindled to just under 200 after that, and eviction courts shut down in an effort to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

But the day looms when these executive orders will expire - and then renters will have to pay the total sum that they didn't pay during the pandemic. And people of color are significantly more likely to experience housing insecurity - so what exactly does the future hold?

Runtime: 5:37

But for one Minnesota family, Mia’s story is personal, nuanced and complex.

Robert DesJarlait is the son of Patrick DesJarlait, the Red Lake Ojibwe artist who created the version of Mia that most of us have known since 1954. An artist himself, Robert explained the complex history of his father and Mia.

Resort Owner Hopeful For Summer Season Even With Covid-19

Title: Resort Owner Hopeful For Summer Season Even With Covid-19
Runtime: 5:10
Date posted: 7 years ago
Description: Beth Schupp is a fourth-generation resort owner in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota. And she's bracing for the best for the 94th summer Fair Hills Resort has been operating. But with Covid-19 fears, it's created some uncertainty for these owners whose livelihoods depend on people leaving home for a summer getaway.

In this interview with One Greater Minnesota Reporter Kaomi Goetz, Schupp talks about how their all-inclusive resort stays might look like and whether guests say they're still coming. Her other resort, Five Lakes Resort, is more remote and can easily accommodate a week of social distancing, she says. And while some cancellations have already rolled in, Schupp says she's hopeful that people will still need a place to recharge and is working on a plan to make it as safe as possible.
