  • My Audacious Grandfather

    My Audacious Grandfather
    Jun 2 2025
    Erica Naito-Campbell, the author of Portland’s Audacious Champion: How Bill Naito Overcame Anti-Japanese Hate and Became an Intrepid Civic Leader in conversation with Eliza Canty Jones– chief program officer at the Oregon Historical Society and editor of the Oregon Historical Quarterly. Erica speaks about her grandfather’s influence and legacy in Portland, yes, but also about his lesser known story–the trauma and racism he experienced during WWII and how he carried that through his life, how it propelled him to great action. In exploring his story, Erica gains a deeper understanding of her beloved grandfather–the public figure and the private man– and his history. But ultimately she gains a greater understanding of herself, what she wants for future generations, and what she hopes for Portland now. Many Roads to Here is a production of The Immigrant Story. This episode was hosted, produced and edited by Meg Ritter. Storyboard was edited by Fran Silverman with audio post production by Gregg Palmer. The original interview was conducted by our executive producer, Sankar Raman, in October of 2024. Thank you to St. Andrew Lutheran Church in Beaverton, Oregon for the use of their space to record the interview.

Under white minority rule, Black people weren’t allowed in certain schools or movie theaters and it could even be dangerous to be out after dark.
