Re: “How Can Progressive Portlanders Accept Racism?”
Our misguided policy of confounding gender and race in terms of "equality" has caused the exact opposite of racial and economic parity. Sex and race are not the same, in case no one has noticed.
It has proved easier to put white girls in law offices and black boys in prison--unless they get shot first.
And then there is the phenomenon of "assortative mating." People strongly tend to marry by ethnicity, class, wealth: lawyers marry lawyers; grocery clerks marry grocery clerks; homeless people marry homeless people. Our social policy is mainly responsible for the increasing stratification by ethnicity, class, wealth: anti-equality.
So we end up with lawyers driving new SUVs and living in the Pearl, grocery clerks driving beaters and living in Felony Flats, homeless people pushing carts and living anywhere they can.
Go figure!

The Prize for Peace is awarded in the great room of Oslo's Town Hall, with Edvard Munch's "Frieze of Life" surrounding.
Go see it sometime.

Because the U-bolt goes through the top tube and the steerer it keeps the front wheel straight when the bike is locked to the rack. Nice.
Do not try to ride it like this, however!
