Today in History: North Star Edition
Posted on: May 11th, 2007 by Matt Raymond
So I was preparing my remarks for the Asian/Pacific-American Heritage Month event coming up Monday, and I learned that yesterday�s �TIH� is the reason APAHM is celebrated in May. (The majority of the laborers who built the transcontinental railroad were Chinese immigrants.) Sometimes I think I�m learning more here than my brain can hold!
In any event, today�s �TIH� is kinda, sorta special to me as a Minnesota native, because it was on this day 149 years ago that �L��toile du Nord� joined the Union.
In honor of that and Mother�s Day, the picture above from the Library�s collections is a 98-year-old bird�s-eye view of Hibbing, Minn., where my mom lives.
Happy Minnesota Day � and Mother�s Day � to all!
