We’re joined by Cameron Whitten, notable for many admirable projects and involvements, cofounder of the Black Resilience Fund, a direct financial assistance program spurred into existence by awareness of the ongoing needs of black Portlanders in these unusual times.  Cameron shares their experiences in life that led them to the point of being able to recognize these needs, and some ideas of what working towards a better world might look like.  We recommend that everyone who is able to donate do so!
