In the last two weeks of the Oregon legislative session, which ended late Friday night,  housing advocates including the Community Alliance of Tenants, the Oregon Housing Alliance and the Urban League of Portland sounded the alarm and protested in Salem over funding cuts. They said the programs for emergency rent assistance and programs to prevent eviction must remain funded to prevent thousands of individuals and families with children from being evicted and becoming homeless. Lisa Bates is a professor of Black Studies at Portland State University and helps run a research program studying evictions across Oregon.   We talk with Bates about the lack of legislative funding for homelessness and housing programs and what’s needed in her view to address the ongoing homeless and housing crisis.

Last week, Portland Public Schools Superintendent Kimberlee Armstrong announced her plan to end Jefferson High School's “dual-enrollment policy”—which allows families in its boundaries to choose between Jefferson or nearby Grant, Roosevelt, or McDaniel high schools instead. Translation? No more school choice for families in North Portland, choices they have enjoyed since 2011. As Willamette Week's reporter put it directly, “PPS Considers Requiring Students in Jefferson Catchment to Attend the School.”It seems, now that Jefferson has a half-billion dollars to build a “world-class school” with capacity for 1,700 students, fewer than 400 students will cut the ribbon on opening day, according to Portland State University's Population Research Center Enrollment Forecast for 2033-34.Ms. Armstrong's May 29 Memo proposes tackling the problem by ending these options for nearly 2,000 students who currently attend neighboring high schools. The School Board will study and decide on this required attendance at Jefferson by the fall of 2026.Until now, Jefferson area families have enjoyed the most progressive policy in the city regarding school choice. Now that the $2 billion school bond has passed, they are proposing to take that choice away. This strategy is backwards, and it is bound to fail. A better option would be to research opportunities to expand school assignments throughout the district and let parents sort out which district school best serves the individual needs of their child.Armstrong says she wants Portland to be a model for the nation. To date, 35 states, plus Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico, have enacted some form of school choice legislation. Letting parents choose among district schools would be an excellent path for the future of Jefferson High School and Portland Public Schools.

A plastic bottle of water powerfully represents the state of our current environmental and health priorities. That water can become commodified while being an essential public service means that who gets access to water can be deeply challenged. How is water justice reached when plastic water privatization has become so embedded in our systems? My guest today, Dr. Daniel Jaffee, is here to explore the depths of these two important parts of the water spectrum.  Dan is an environmental and rural sociologist, and a professor of Sociology at Portland State University. His research examines conflicts over water privatization and commodification, the social, economic, and environmental impacts of bottled and packaged water, and the social movements that form around bottled water and water justice in the global North and South. He is also the author of Unbottled: The Fight Against Plastic Water and for Water Justice, and Brewing Justice: Fair Trade Coffee, Sustainability, and Survival. In today's episode, we're talking about how cultural and economic shifts shaped the success of bottled water, what its commodification means for the municipal water systems that serve us, and how the global water crisis becomes socially produced.

Today we talk with members of the organizing collective of the Coalition for Action in Higher Education, or CAHE, about their second National Day of Action, taking place on Thursday, April 17. The Day of Action is a call for free higher education in every meaning of that term. CAHE calls for “the elimination of all existing student debt, making all public colleges and universities tuition-free, and ensuring that our colleges and universities remain sites of robust free thinking about the world we live in and the world we want.”We talk about the genesis of this group, and the gap it seeks to fill at the intersection of all of these interests, with Palestine squarely at the center. CAHE is thus a critical hub for activism that addresses each of the major points of attack on education coming from the Trump administration. Karim Mattar is an Associate Professor of English at the University of Colorado at Boulder.  A descendant of survivors of the Palestinian Nakba of 1948, he works at the intersection of Palestine studies, the humanities, and higher education.  He is currently at work on two book projects.  The Ethics of Affiliation seeks to develop a curriculum and a public pedagogy of truth and reconciliation in historic Palestine, focusing on the areas of education, culture, public institutions, civil society, and law.  Reflections on Palestine: Exile, Privilege, Responsibility interweaves personal experience, family history, cultural critique, and political analysis to tell a multigenerational, transcontinental story of responsibility to the oppressed.  Also a dedicated community organizer, Karim works at the local, state, and national levels to enhance public awareness and understanding of Palestinian literature, history, and politics and to advocate for Palestinian liberation.  Karim received his D.Phil. in English at the University of Oxford in 2013, and writes and teaches more broadly on comparative Middle Eastern literatures and cultures, the history of the novel, media and technology, and critical theory.Bill V.

In 2023, Oregon was awarded more than $58 million in federal grants from the Inflation Reduction Act to plant and maintain trees. The availability of much of those funds remains uncertain.  Earlier this month, the Oregon Department of Forestry, city agencies and nonprofits told Inside Climate News that at least $40 million dollars in grant reimbursements to boost urban tree canopies in Oregon remain unpaid.  Last week, several U.S. farmers and nonprofits sued the Trump administration for withholding grants funded by the Inflation Reduction Act.   Vivek Shandas is a professor of geography at Portland State University and a member of the National Urban and Community Forestry Advisory Council. He joins us with more on the future of the state’s tree canopies and what they mean for Oregonians.

Solomon has been writing books since she was six years old. At the age of eleven she wrote and hand-stitched the binding to her own story: a riff of Calvin and Hobbes with a female protagonist. She graduated from Portland State University in 2012 with a B.S. in Liberal Studies and a Minor in Writing.Her work has appeared on the cover of Gotham Writers Class Schedule and has been featured on The Spinning Pen, and Wow! Women on Writing. Solomon's writing takes cues from her childhood, where the vast setting of Alaska seemed just as much a character in her life story as she did. She favors broken or imperfect characters and utilizes a lyrical, repetitive style within her prose. Her work is heavily influenced by the female authors she grew up loving: Margaret Atwood, Lois Lowry, and Alice Hoffman.Winner of Gotham Writers #storieseverywhere for July 2016.Story as Cover Art for Gotham Writers Winter Class Schedule 2016-2017Contributor on Ad Hoc Fiction.Short Story Winner on The Spinning Pen (December 2016).Dual POV Prompt Flash Fiction Contributor on The Spinning Pen (March 2017).Guest Writer on The Spinning Pen (February 2017 & March 2017).Runner Up for Wow!

On Monday, Portland State University was among 60 universities under investigation for antisemitic discrimination and harassment by the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights.The warning issued by Secretary of Education Linda McMahon says schools like PSU could receive potential enforcement actions if they do not fulfill their obligations under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act to protect Jewish students on campus, including uninterrupted access to campus facilities and educational opportunities.“The Department is deeply disappointed that Jewish students studying on elite U.S. campuses continue to fear for their safety amid the relentless antisemitic eruptions that have severely disrupted campus life for more than a year. University leaders must do better,” said McMahon. “U.S. colleges and universities benefit from enormous public investments funded by U.S. taxpayers. That support is a privilege, and it is contingent on scrupulous adherence to federal anti-discrimination laws.”

Growing up here in Portland, I'm infused with the principles of sustainability and environmental stewardship. I'm grateful to have grown up in this community where those values are front and center. Portland has a great history of urban planning, of really trying to do smart growth. I remember, as a kid, growing up, sorting out recycling, going out for hikes and camping. The reverence for nature and the planet is very, very deep. That's why I got into real estate development in the first place in college, recognizing the potential power of the industry to have a positive impact in this way.In today's world, sustainability is no longer optional—it's essential. Robert Pile, Founder of Oakleaf reDevelopment, has taken this challenge head-on with an innovative net-zero housing project in Portland. His 12-unit development in the St. John's neighborhood is a shining example of what's possible when environmental stewardship and urban planning align.At the heart of this project is the commitment to net zero energy use. As Robert explained, “The secret recipe is really in the proportions of the building… a super-tight envelope, high-efficiency HVAC systems, and rooftop solar panels.” These elements work together to ensure the building generates as much energy as it consumes.Such innovation doesn't come without challenges. With only a limited roof area for solar panels, the design had to be meticulously planned. Still, Robert remains optimistic, highlighting that their calculations are on target. “Our energy modeling… is right on the money in terms of the projected energy use and generation from the roof,” he said.Importantly, this project is about more than sustainability. It also addresses Portland's growing housing needs. Leveraging a zoning change from 2020, the development densifies the urban core while staying in harmony with environmental goals. By focusing on urban infill, Oakleaf reDevelopment is creating a model that could be replicated across the city to provide more housing while reducing the community's carbon footprint.Robert's vision extends beyond this project. “The opportunity we have is to leverage the outsized impact of the building industry… by pursuing more sustainable, energy-efficient, and net zero types of projects,” he noted. His passion for combining business with sustainability reflects a larger movement toward responsible development.If you're as inspired as I am, you can learn more about the project and even invest in it through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on Small Change. With this approach, Robert is not just building housing but also inviting the community to be a part of the solution. Visit s4g.biz/WL to explore the opportunity to make a difference and a profit.Robert's work is a testament to the power of innovative thinking and collaboration in addressing the climate crisis. It's proof that when we combine technology, passion, and community, we can build a better future—literally.tl;dr:* Robert Pile explains Oakleaf reDevelopment's innovative net zero housing project in Portland.* The project combines urban infill and sustainability, reducing energy use with efficient designs.* Robert highlights how zoning changes enabled this eco-friendly, scalable development model.* He shares his passion for sustainability and the formative experiences shaping his vision.* Robert advises engaging with nature and supporting sustainable businesses to amplify environmental impact.How to Develop Environmental Passion As a SuperpowerRobert Pile's superpower is his unwavering passion for sustainability. Growing up in Portland, he was immersed in values of environmental stewardship, which shaped his life and career. As he put it, “The built environment uses disproportionate amounts of energy… the opportunity to pursue more sustainable, energy-efficient, and net zero projects excites me the most.”One memorable story illustrates his connection to nature: Robert recalls growing up in Portland, where his family's activities often revolved around the outdoors. Whether hiking or recycling, these moments laid the foundation for his environmental ethic and his desire to make a difference through sustainable real estate development.Robert offers practical advice for developing this superpower:* Spend time in nature to foster a personal connection with the environment.* Support sustainability-focused businesses and initiatives.* Be mindful of consumption by choosing local products and services.* Leverage financial resources to contribute to environmental causes.By following Robert's example and advice, you can make environmental passion a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Historically, philosophers have studied ethical theories that focused on how we make decisions based on what is morally right or wrong. But a somewhat newer branch known as care ethics, approaches morality from a much broader context, which involves centering the individual's experience and their relationship to the people around them. Maurice Hamington is a philosophy professor at Portland State University and author of the book, “Revolutionary Care.” He argues that the world needs more care and compassion for others and also recently spoke to the Atlantic about incorporating care ethics into parenting approaches. Hamington joins us to share more on care ethics and how he thinks it could be incorporated into our daily lives.
