The People’s History of Oregon Opening Reception
Thursday, October 13
5-7 p.m. | FREE | All Ages
Exhibition runs October 6-26
@ Littman Gallery, 1825 SW Broadway, #250

A People’s History of Oregon” is a new series of work that represents Chris Haberman’s experience, research, oral history and tall tales about Oregon. Haberman attempts to bridge the gap between the facts and fables of Oregon’s rich historical and cultural heritage by examining the authority of history with local folklore.

This exhibition portrays Haberman’s perception of Oregon’s cultural landscape from Paleolithic times and Native American heritage to pioneer development and modern Oregon. Reality and myth bleed into each other the same way the coast gives way to forest, then to city and desert. Read the rest of this entry »

On May 9, 1934, thousands of longshoremen along the West Coast walked off the job, beginning an eighty-two-day standoff between the International Longshoreman’s Association (ILA) and company owners.

In Portland, the strike split the city in two: sympathetic citizens rallied around the workers, offering food, shelter, and transportation; those opposed to the strike—including Henry Corbett, Amedee Smith, and Henry Cabell—formed the Citizens Emergency Committee and called on President Roosevelt to stop the strike with federal troops.
