Pedal for the Philippines: a Revolutionary Music & History tour

Have you ever found yourself in a public park thinking "Hmmm, I wonder if this park was named after a violently racist white dude who died in a stupid way 100 years ago?" PCHRP (the Portland Committee for Human Rights in the Philippines) has had many thoughts like this, and they're going to take us on a ride to learn about how some of their FAVORITE PARKS 💕🌲🌳 are named after some of their LEAST FAVORITE COLONIZERS🙅‍♂️👎🏾❌ We'll jam out to Filipino music while we ride, and at each stop we'll dig into some of the dark history of Portland's parks/monuments. We'll also learn how the Filipino people and allies are organizing for pro-people spaces! It is highly likely that there will be snacks. The ride will be about 8 miles at an easy pace, no drop, kiddos welcome and corkers appreciated. An important note: we don't fuck with Spotify and don't use it for our ride playlists. It has deep investor ties to the US/Israel war machine, treats its artists poorly, and is actively making music stupider with its AI algorithm. If you wanna sync up with our playlists, let us know in advance so we can find the best way to share. Event link: https://shift2bikes.org/calendar/event-23917
