This weekend I went to Portland. Haven't taken a trip since February out of state.
I was listening to Oregon Public Broadcasting (OPB) on the way back home. The station was broadcasting a
New Yorker Magazine' podcast of:
Oregon's racist past highlighting when Oregon was still a territory, "it passed its first Black e"xclusionary law. It banned slavery, but it also prohibited Black people from living in the territory for more than three years. If a Black person broke this law, the consequence was 39 lashes, every six months, until they left.
The territory passed another Black exclusion law five years later, in 1849. This one barred Black people who were not already in the area from entering or residing in Oregon territory."
The podcast stated that Portland is an island of blue in a red state and white nationalists resent that Portland metro dictates liberal policy and laws for the entire state.
The podcast cited the Pacific Northwest (PNW) as a bastion of white surpremists.
The show also discussed the recent FBI
document showing how white supremacists have infiltrated LEO in the hope to draw liberals into a fight where these white nationalist LEOs can legally kill liberals and minorities.
