A storytelling exhibit at The BLACK Gallery explores what ‘home’ means to members of a Portland community that’s been profoundly impacted by gentrification.
If We Could Talk is a socially engaged photography and writing project that blends history, race and place.
Many of the featured artists are members of North and Northeast Portland’s displaced Black community who have reclaimed their roots through the city’s North/Northeast Preference Policy. The policy informs the eligibility criteria for the Dr. Darrell Millner Building on North Interstate Avenue, where the artists live.
On view through February 16 at The BLACK Gallery at 916 NW Flanders St Portland, OR 97209
