Today we honor the memory and the meaningful work of Whitney Young, an American civil rights leader who was born on the 31st of July in 1921. His dedication to equity remains relevant as we are still working towards equal rights.

Yesterday was "National Interns Day" one of Oregon's 5 largest companies @HoffmanCorp celebrated their 35 interns, none of whom appear to be Black. They've also made no statement yet about #BlackLivesMatter but I am sure they'll sponsor a big table at the next MLK luncheon. – at Portland, OR

The construction industry is a key player in the economy and can be for equity. Zero Black-owned businesses made The List from the Portland Business Journal, while the construction industry accounted for over 40% of the Top 50 businesses listed.

Fresh aerial views showing the progress for King + Parks, a 5-story apartment complex located on MLK Jr. Blvd. in the Piedmont neighborhood. The exterior's siding and brick in the courtyard are nearly complete just as interior finishes are underway.
