Upcoming Events
Screening event: ‘Remember Mulugeta: Confronting Hate in Portland’
Join OPB’s “Oregon Experience” team for the premiere screening of their new film, “Remember Mulugeta: Confronting Hate in Portland.”
Portland in the 1980s was a hotbed of racist, skinhead violence, which reached a boiling point in 1988 when three neo-Nazis murdered Ethiopian immigrant Mulugeta Seraw. Was it homegrown hate or did it come from outside?
Stay after for a Q&A with the film’s producers and hear from people featured in the film.
