Andre Middleton - Bring the Noise
from PDX Black Rose Podcast Hosted by PDX Black Rose
Andre Middleton joins us on the podcast. He is another Black Portlander doing big things in the city. He is the Executive Director of Friends of Noise. It is a non-profit whose mission is teach kids the technical skills to produce and put on events. They not only give them the tools to succeed, but they also build the events with them. When students show promise, they will help be in the pipeline for freelance work. Friends of Noise creates an ecosystem where kids learn how to put on events, they practice the skills, and then they get paid to do it. They do this to combat the nepotism and barriers to access that other communities often have to gain the skills to be successful. Learn more at our blog, podcast, and video playlist.
