Bridges is Portland Story Theater's new series modeled after our popular Urban Tellers but with a focus on social justice. This first season, the theme is race. Bridges will bring together people from different racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds to share their personal narratives, closing the gap between "us" and "them.”
Join us to hear the personal stories from people who live in our community:
Judith Mowry is a Policy Analyst focusing on Equity Strategies and Initiatives at the city of Portland’s Office of Equity and Human Rights. She is the co-founder of the Restorative Justice Project on Gentrification and partnered in developing the Community Residential Siting Program for the City of Portland. Willie Welch is a local artist who specializes in paper sculpture. He grew up in a Los Angeles neighbourhood troubled by gangs and violence, which he escaped by immersing himself in creativity.
Paula Small grew up in New York City. She is the host of a semi-monthly radio show on KBOO and is a local entrepreneur, who manages her own bookkeeping business
Donna Kelly grew up in Portland and has witnessed many transitions in her neighborhood. She is a facilitator at Race Talks, and has presented various talks, including “Growing Up Multi-Racial in Oregon.”
