For those unable to attend the Ta-Nehisi Coates lecture in Eugene on Friday, Feb. 3, UO Portland has organized an event that includes a simulcast of his talk,  panel discussion, art exhibition and community tabling.

It’s hard to imagine Portland without the Tom McCall Waterfront Park, the Willamette Valley without the wine industry, or Stumptown without sustainability. But each started as an idea or a moment that eventually shaped an entire region.Urban historians have gathered a series of one-minute stories about the people, decisions, inventions, embarrassments and events that shaped Portland. “PDX:DNA – 60 Minutes That Shaped Portland,” will be from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Jan. 18, at UO Portland, 70 NW Couch St.  

Nancy Nusz will discuss the cultural traditions of people in Multnomah County
