dc.description.abstractThe state of Oregon has tried to break away from its dark history of racism, exclusion, and erasure by fronting as an inclusive safe haven. But inclusion is far from the truth. Gentrification and redlining have torn apart communities that were built in spite of the state’s racist past. Thousands of Oregonians have subsequently been displaced, like many from past generations. This article looks to historical papers, personal accounts, Census demographics, city development plans, and scholarly research to examine how the attitudes surrounding race have shaped the lives and dynamics of people in Oregon.en_US
