Portland has the worst history of racism shoved into its every bed corner and yet there is so much good built into her bed sheets. This was a clever and effective strategy to highlight perceptions versus experience, thank you! I wish the schools here taught students about the historical repetition of racism in Portland as much as they protect, encourage and promote its “(good) weird” (brilliant use of words)!
Keep Portland Weird!
