CONFRONTATION at Portland State University: Did I Harm Students By Asking This Question?
Following the unexpected cancellation of our Reverse Q&A at Brown University, we created an ad hoc event on the streets of Portland.

This video was filmed on May 11, 2022 outside a Portland State University building that houses the department of social work.
