Residents flee Vanport during a May 30, 1948 flood that destroyed the town which once
rested between where Delta Park and the Portland International Raceway are today.
Lost City, Living Memories
Vanport film of first-person narratives
You’re invited to see a spe-
cial screening of the communi-
ty-produced short oral history
documentary featuring former
Vanport residents sharing their
memories of a 1948 flood that
destroyed their city rooted in
Portland’s African American
history.
“Lost City, Living Mem-
ories: Vanport through the
Voices of its Residents,” will
play Saturday, Oct. 22 at 2
p.m. at Portland State Univer-
sity’s Smith Memorial Student
Union, downtown.
Through archival footage,
historic photographs, and com-
pelling first-person narratives,
this collection of short films
creates a rich and elaborate
“mosaic” of the vibrant com-
munity that made up the city of
Vanport.
In addition, archival photos
and maps from the city, part of
the exhibit Vanport: The Surge
of Social Change co-curated
by Oregon Black Pioneers will
be on display. And history pro-
fessor James Harrison of Port-
land Community College’s
Cascade Campus will answer
questions. Harrison is current-
ly conducting research and is
in the early stages of writing a
comprehensive social history
of Vanport and its impact on
Portland.
Former Vanport residents
will also share their memories
and Portland author Zita Po-
dany will be signing copies of
her book “Images of America:
Vanport.”
Tickets are $5. For more in-
