FRIDAY FORUM

Bicycling in Portland

Please note that this forum is on Friday, May 31. There will be no forum on May 24, the Friday before Memorial Day Weekend.

Friday, May 31

Portland is a city where people travel by car, public transit, walking and bicycling. Each is here to stay. Biking is part of our cities culture, and in 2012, Bicycling magazine ranked Portland as the most bike-friendly city in the country. With the release of City Club’s report on bicycle transportation in Portland, we’ll answer the question: “How should we improve our transportation system to optimize choice, efficiency and safety for all modes of transportation?”

Allen Temple AME Church

A conversation with Lois Leveen, educator & author of the Secrets of Mary Bowser.

In this conversation, author and education expert Lois Leveen will discuss how the history behind the novel offers important lessons for the twenty-first century, particularly how Mary Bowser’s journey from slavery to freedom can serve as a model as we work to achieve educational equity for all young people in Portland.
