Harold Williams Court
Children from late African-American community leader Harold C. Williams Sr. hold up a plaque honoring
their father during a dedication ceremony naming the basketball court at Portland Community College’s
Cascade Campus, the Harold C. Williams Sr. Court. Pictured at the Dec. 2 ceremony, (from left) are
siblings Harold Williams Two and Natasha Butler, and Cascade Campus President Karin Edwards. Portland
Community College dedicated the basketball court at the Cascade Campus in north Portland on Dec.
2 as the Harold C. Williams Sr. Court in honor of the late PCC board member and longtime leader in
Portland’s African-American community. The special ceremony was in recognition to the many years of
service Williams gave the college, and for his public service as a long time advocate for people of color, the
disadvantaged and others from the north and northeast Portland community.
