UPDATE 9.9.2014 – See photos from final night of the tour in Bay City here.
People are turning out in the HUNDREDS (257 in Albany the other night) to take part in Walidah Imarisha’s touring conversation project, “Why aren’t there more black people in Oregon? A hidden history”, organized by Oregon Humanities and the Rural Organizing Project.
What does this mean?
It means Imarisha has found a subject of vital interest to many Oregonians, and she is connecting with an engaged audience.
You’ve got two more chances to be a part of this unique community dialogue. Tonight in Newport, and tomorrow (Tuesday) in Bay City (near Tillamook).
Turn out and help make Oregon better for all citizens!
Spread the word.
