Dr. Paul Louis Metzger
will moderate a panel discussion involving leaders of diverse ethnic
perspectives. Panelists include Dr. John M. Perkins, Steve Hanamura, Rev. Dr. Randy Woodley, Jeri Williams, John Canda, and Dr. LeRoy Haynes, Jr. Together they will address the subject of justice as it relates
to the complex realities of gentrification and urban renewal. Attention will
also be given to concerns over land use and rights. It is vitally important
that we engage a subject like this in a place like Portland, Oregon where the
history involving these matters is very complicated and conflicted. We must be
intentional and take to heart these important subjects if we are to be
concerned about a holistic approach to justice in our contemporary context. Click here for more information about The Justice Conference.
