AFRICAN AMERICAN WAITERS MADE A VERY GOOD LIVING AT THE PORTLAND HOTEL
05/11/2022
The elite of the world stayed here and tipped generously. African American servers were able to purchase their own homes, start businesses & send children for a better education. It was the prized job to hold in Portland. By 1940 Portland had the highest percentage of African-American homeowners at 41.1%.
