  • Black and Blue: Police-Community Relations in Portland's Albina
    LEANNE C. SERBULO & KAREN J. GIBSON Black and Blue Police-Community Relations in Portland’s Albina District, 1964–1985 It appears that there is sufficient evidence to believe that the Portland Police Department indulges in stop and frisk practices in Albina. They seem to feel that they have the right to stop and frisk someone because his skin is black and he is in the black part of town. — Attorney commenting in City Club of Portland’s Report on Law Enforcement, 1981 DURING THE 1960s, institutionalized discrimination, unemployment, and police brutality fueled inter-racial tensions in cities across America, including Portland, Oregon. Riots became more frequent, often resulting in death and destruction. Pres. Lyndon Johnson’s National Advisory Com- mission on Civil Disorders issued in early 198 what became known as the “Kerner Report,” which declared that the nation was “moving toward two societies, one black, one white — separate and unequal.”2 Later that year, the City Club of Portland published a document titled Report on Problems of Racial Justice in Portland, its own version of the national study. The report documented evidence of racial discrimination in numerous institutions, including the police bureau. The section “Police Policies, Attitudes, and Practices” began with the following statement: The Mayor and the Chief of Police have indicated that in their opinions the Kerner Report is not applicable to Portland. Satisfactory police-citizen relations are not likely to be achieved as a reality in Portland in the absence of a fundamental change in the philosophy of the officials who formulate policy for the police bureau.

  • The Oregonian Jo Ann Hardesty Sworn in to City Council
    The Oregonian Jo Ann Hardesty Sworn in to City Council, Cementing Portland’s Liberal Legacy By Gordon Friedman January 2, 2019 Jo Ann Hardesty was sworn in as a city commissioner on Wednesday, ushering in a new era for the Portland City Council in which women hold the majority of its seats for the first time and Hardesty, long a critic of City Hall, has become one of its power brokers. Hardesty, 61, also made history as she became the first African American woman to join the council. She is its third African American member and the first since 1992. An activist and former state representative, Hardesty rose to power defying historical norms for city council candidates, who have typically been white, male businessmen. She lives in East Portland, has scraped by on a modest income and has for years pushed from the outside for police reform – experiences that helped her connect to voters. Now, the critic is the commissioner. “When I look around me, I see a city filled with people with hope and I don’t take that hope lightly,” Hardesty said after taking the oath of office, administered before a crowd of supporters at City Hall by Adrienne Nelson, the first African American justice of the Oregon Supreme Court. “I look forward to what we’re going to be able to do together as Portlanders,” Hardesty said. Hardesty won election to the council in November when she beat then-Multnomah County Commissioner Loretta Smith by more than 65,000 votes, a decisive victory. The campaign was intense.

Transmission rate increases of 26 percent to 44 percent would be passed directly to industrial and residential consumers. On May 23, the White House fiscal 2018 budget included a cryptic entry for the sale of the Bonneville Power Administration's transmission assets. The proposed revenues from the sale are only 80 percent of the value of the assets being sold. This raises the question of why these valuable assets should be sold at a discount — and who would get the benefit of the discounted price. If the sale goes through, it also will raise novel regulatory issues. In the most likely scenario, the proposed sale could increase transmission rates by 44 percent. In a less likely scenario, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission might be persuaded to reduce the assessed value of the transmission assets to the proposed sale price, since the Trump administration proposes to sell the transmission system at a loss.
