Journalism and Reporting in Portland, Oregon

Background of image shows a set of handcuffs attached to a metal pole on a sidewalk with text in front. Text reads: They came for the whistle-blowers, I watched and said nothing. They came for the activists, I watched and said nothing. They came for the journalists, I watched and said nothing. They came for the publishers, I watched and said nothing. When they came for me, there was no one left to notice. Because I had not yet learned to stand up for myself by standing up for others. Lesley McLam.
