    This is a beautiful area of Washington but it’s the red dot in a blue state.

      Most of Washington (land is red). One of the few areas that's blue is the Seattle area where about half of the population is in Washington. But because of the population, Washington is blue

    Are you kidding me? "Historical Bias"? I'm sorry that you have had a bad experience in the Tri Cities. Something bad must have happened to you, to make you want to give a presentation about how you've been excluded by the citizens of Richland, WA. I was born here and have great friends who are not only 1st and 2nd generation residents, but friends and loved ones who have been here since the 1940s. Sure, there may be a family or two who think that they're above everyone else. I don't like that either, but I'm not going to personalize it and think that it's some sort of infectious disease in my town. It's an anomaly; not a true representation of Richland residents. This town was built on devotion to country and patriotism. The vast majority of people who came here were all on even ground. It was like the gold-rush, to come here and land a job with the government. We believe in helping those who are trying to help themselves; those who believe in the American Dream. And we welcome any person who has a desire to contribute to our community and promote the wonderful things that our city, and community, have to offer. You are not doing that. You sound like a wounded, little girl.

      You didn't watch the video did you. Also unless you write or work history field, I think you have no right to talk about anything. I never seen you at the East Benton County Museum. If you have then you'd be trained by or worked with me. BTW my family came before yours and with the Dam Building.

      Thank you for your feedback. I love the Tri-Cities, and describe in my talk how it was the first place I was accepted and felt like a local since leaving my hometown. I wasn't excluded at all. The discussion in this talk is centered around the history of the Tri-Cities, and the impact that those historical challenges, such as for years restricting African Americans to only be permitted to live in Pasco, and what those early decisions have had on the community as it has evolved. The Tri-Cities is a fantastic community, and I love it very much. I'd encourage you to watch again, since you'll find I completely agree with you and your comments within the first few minutes of the video. :)

    This woman is not a local. Its simple, if your family is from here than you are a local. My family came here in 1910 with the rail road and had a big square of property in west pasco. This strange and nonsensical "instant native" attitude is what is destroying the cities. Importing this bland and corporate look from all bland and boring cities around the country. People like her and all transplants as she calls them have ruined this city. Absolute shame.
