HAPPENINGS
Retirees group will discuss
tax reform at free forum
Rising costs for housing and health
care are among the most notable de-
mands on fixed income retirees.
Some two-thirds have little or no re-
tirement savings and are relying on
public programs to survive. With
Oregon’s population 65 years and
older expected to nearly double by
2030, that will place more demands
on those public services. The Ore-
gon Alliance for Retired Americans
Education Fund is hosting a free
seminar to talk about how tax re-
form can possibly help bring some
relief. Guest speakers are Chuck
Sheketoff, executive director of the
Oregon Center for Public Policy,
and Daniel Morris, research director
for Our Oregon.
■ Time: Thurs., Feb. 9, 9 am-noon
■ Place: Oregon Labor Center, 3645 SE
32nd Ave. Portland.
LERC sponsors Black
History event Feb. 15
For Black History Month, the Uni-
versity of Oregon Labor Education
and Resource Center (LERC) is
sponsoring a presentation, film, and
discussion led by retired AFSCME
secretary-treasurer Bill Lucy and
University of Washington Tacoma
labor history professor Michael
Honey. Lucy was with Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr., during the 1968
strike by AFSCME sanitation
workers in Memphis, Tennessee.
Honey is the author of several
books about black working people’s
history and King’s ties to organized
labor. The event will feature Dr.
Honey’s new documentary, Love
and Solidarity, which highlights the
life of civil and workers’ rights
champion Rev. James Lawson.
