That crackling fire on your TV is great, but if you're looking for something other than yule log to gaze at this holiday season, give OPB's "Slow TV" a whirl. Enjoy a beautiful sunset in Astoria or watch steelhead jump in the Umpqua River. Consider it a gift from us to you.
OPB’s ‘Slow TV’ brings you a maritime sunset, Cascade Range hike and more
OPB is trying a new experiment: filming scenic journeys through beautiful landscapes at a leisurely pace.

Bring back the Nightmare Elk, you cowards.
It's been over five years since the Thompson Elk statue was removed from its spot in downtown Portland after someone sprayed it with graffiti and built fires in the fountain.
The statue might finally make its return in the spring.

Thompson Elk statue could be standing in downtown Portland again by spring
Portland authorities want to return the Thompson Elk statue to its rightful place downtown after it was damaged in 2020. But the process involves an alphabet soup of jurisdictions and is taking a long time.

WTO/99 is a reminder of people power and how the state's response shocked the community. Only the most cynical activists expected to be gassed. When it happened, it brought a huge coalition into the streets. Today, that level of police violence occurs weekly without triggering similar solidarity.

THE HARDER THEY COME (1972) was the first film we chose to start our annual Color & Sound series; it's a foundational work of global cinema. Worth searching out, if you haven't seen it.
