The State of Black Oregon is here!

The State of Black Oregon is finally here and we are so proud. We had a wonderful Press Launch today at the outdoor plaza at the World Trade Center downtown. The event was well attended by the community, press, and a number of local and statewide representatives including: Mayor Sam Adams, Sen. Margaret Carter, Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian, State Treasurer Ben Westlund, Rep. Tina Kotek, Affirmative Action Director Peggy Ross, Former Sen. Avel Gordly. We're grateful that everyone took the time to join us on a warm Monday morning
