These days it can be hard to feel hopeful in any s These days it can be hard to feel hopeful in any sense of the word. We are living through a myriad of crises—devastating climate collapse, a global pandemic, massive income inequality, stark political polarization to the point where even facts and information are not mutually agreed upon, massive inflation, the rise of white nationalism as an animating force in mainstream United States politics, legislative attacks on queer and trans children, the pending reversal of nationwide abortion rights, poisoned municipal water supplies, a lower life expectancy and lower quality of life than recent generations—and on and on and on.

Imagine you’re waiting for the train on the sout Imagine you’re waiting for the train on the south end of Pioneer Square. A houseless man sitting on the curb to your right starts yelling about how the government is probing our phones. Everyone is scared and ignores him and then the police chase him away. Everyone is relieved because the seemingly dangerous mentally ill person is gone. But is he dangerous or does he just need help?    This kind of scenario begs the question—what is being done to help the mental health of those unhoused in Portland?

For the Portland-based muralist and designer Josep For the Portland-based muralist and designer Joseph the Human, art has been a lifelong calling. Joseph, who was born in Brooklyn, New York and grew up in Beaverton, said he was drawn to graffiti at a young age and was determined to go to Portland to practice his creative work.     “My whole goal was just to get out of the suburbs and get to a place where I can try to go art school and try to do some kind of art,” Joseph said.    Once in Portland, he enrolled in classes at Portland Community College and Portland State University, until the pandemic pushed his art onto the streets.

One frequently recurring event at the center are demonstrations of the koto, a traditional Japanese 13-stringed instrument. Mitsuki Dazai, who frequently performs the Garden’s koto demonstrations, said that the music serves as a unique bridge between Japanese and U.S. culture.    “It’s always sad to see people building a wall between us,” Dazai said of the gap between cultures. “But music is able to destroy [those] walls and [build] understanding.

The PSU protest lasted several days. Despite non-violent and city-permitted means of protesting, Portland city officials, namely Mayor Terry Schrunk, dispatched the Tactical Operations Platoon (colloquially referred to as riot police) who injured over 30 people and destroyed the strikers’ hospital tent. This tragic escalation of events was on the sixth day of protests. 📸 Photos Courtesy of David Horowitz #protest #vietnam #PSU #PortlandState
Who does the Supreme Court answer to? (link in bio Who does the Supreme Court answer to? (link in bio) This summer it is widely expected that the Supreme Court will issue a ruling on the Mississippi 15-week abortion ban that will overturn almost 50 years of settled abortion law precedent. This is in spite of recent Gallup polls showing nearly 80% of the United States supports abortion in all or most cases. In the same poll, 63% of the U.S. wanted the Supreme Court’s precedent in Roe v. Wade upheld. If—or more starkly put, when—the new conservative supermajority now on the court thanks to Donald Trump tears up Roe v. Wade, it will be acting in direct opposition to the prevailing views of the majority of the country. #SCOTUS #DEMOCRACY #ABORTION
