All Power to The People: Black Panther Party Legacy Tour of Albina

Start: Parking lot of Matt Dishman Center

End: Northeast Coaltion of Neighbors

* Recommended: driving or biking between historical stops

Tickets: $15 at Eventbrite

Join Mr. Kent Ford and Vanport Mosaic as we celebrate the legendary Malcolm X. On this tour, we will discuss his influence on the movement for black liberation, the Black Panther party, and the world. Malcolm’s determination and grit inspired many of us to stand up and speak out, continuing the fight for black lives.

Mr. Kent Ford is co-founder of Portland's chapter of the '60s-era black empowerment organization, for a walking tour in NE Portland. Listen to his personal memories of revolutionary activism and community service, and be inspired for today’s fight for change.

A walking tour map/educational resource designed by Paste In Place will be available.

This program is made possible by the generous support of the Marie Lamfrom Charitable Foundation, the Collins Foundation, and Ronni Lacroute. Special thanks to our partner, Northeast Coalition of Neighborhoods.
