Presented from Friendly House, three HGP members share stories of notable events in their lives. Organized by Suzanne Thornton.
Many people consider World Trade Center Building #7 to be the Achilles heel of the official 9/11 narrative. In this talk David Fura provides evidence of a deliberate suppression of truth behind the destruction of Building 7 (controlled demolition). He examines the role of the media in hiding evidence. Fura is a computer engineer who works on the design of computer chips. He holds a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from the University of Washington. He is co-founder of the Portland Action Group of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth. (HGP does not take responsibility for material presented by our speakers.)

The emphasis is on human factors. Ms. White conducts pedestrian safety outreach and education citywide. In 2007, she was awarded the “Golden Sole Award” from “Oregon Walks”.
