2024 Film Series: Once a Braided River
Tuesday, March 26 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm
About the film:
Once a Braided River, a new documentary by Barbara Bernstein, tells the story of how the North Reach of the Willamette River was transformed from a braided river, rich in biodiversity and home to many bands of indigenous people, into an industrial sacrifice zone with a ten mile long superfund site running from downtown Portland to the river’s confluence with the Columbia River. The documentary focuses on the part of Portland that most Portlanders don’t know about or ignore. It braids together the strands of many issues that face us – climate chaos, rivers contaminated with toxic pollutants, fish and wildlife brought to the brink of extinction by these perilous practices, and the dire hazards of storing immense amounts of explosive fossil fuels upon liquefaction zones underlain by major fault lines along the shoreline of the river that runs through our region. The documentary features community groups and activists working to replace the current industrial sacrifice zone with a green working waterfront defined by good jobs, clean energy, and healthy ecosystems.
When: Tuesday, March 26th from 4:30pm to 7:00pm
Where: Columbia Room at the Vancouver Community Library, 901 C St, Vancouver, WA 98660
Event Schedule:
4:30pm – Doors Open
4:45pm – Pizza
5:15pm – Film Starts
