Despite its progressive reputation, the Northwest has a long history of discrimination and inequity. Join historian, writer, and educator David J. Jepsen as he wrestles with this legacy in his book Contested Boundaries: A New Pacific Northwest History.
Through dramatic, humorous, and sometimes tragic stories, hear how people of color, the working poor, immigrants, and women throughout the Pacific Northwest struggled to hurdle one boundary after another.
