I'm not claiming that all Oregonians are racist, but I do not believe it is an error to point to its massive skinhead/racist subculture during the 80s and 90s, nor am I wrong about the fact that Oregon was the state with the largest KKK population during the heights of that group's popularity.

Rose City Antifascist (Rose City Antifa) continues to work against the racist subculture and to shine light onto their evil activities. But if my post seemed to claim that Portland OR currently is the principle racist enclave in the United States, that was not my intention.
