Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC News EuropeLatest broadcast: on BBC News North America

Violence has broken out in New York, Berkeley, and Charlottesville. But perhaps most affected is Portland, Oregon, a liberal, progressive city in the Pacific North-West. For our season on Crossing Divides, Mike Wendling has been there to meet activists from both sides to try to understand why the violence continues. Show less
