- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 11 Dec, 2025 at 07:00 pm – Thu, 11 Dec, 2025 at 08:00 pm
- **Event Description**: During the late 1800s, anti-Chinese discrimination was on the rise in Oregon. This was fueled by the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, which banned Chinese immigration to the United States. On February 22, 1886, 40 men forced Chinese workers out of Oregon City and onto a steamboat to Portland. The group blamed Chinese laborers for taking jobs from White workers during hard economic times. In "Oregon City's Chinese Expulsion," join Oregon Historical Quarterly-published author Jim Nicita for a compelling lecture exploring these injustices and the enduring history and legacy of Oregon City’s Chinese community. Discover the stories that have too often been overlooked and gain new insight into the city’s past.
