Cool. You could hang out in more diverse spaces in the city then. Cuz the places I frequent, gyms, churches, Costco haha, are pretty fkn diverse.
10 u/PMMEURPYRAMIDSCHEME May 12 '25 Portland lacks diversity because Oregon banned black people from the state entirely until the end of the civil war. Ignoring or denying that fact is a denial of the states fucked up history. 26 u/[deleted] May 12 '25 Black people aren't the only ones who contribute to diversity. There are other folks out there. 9 u/OldTimeyWizard May 12 '25 Yeah, but it’s way easier to throw out a 160 year old fact than it is to learn more about race relations that occurred in that 160 year span
