🎧 Power of Place Episode #65 | The Calligrapher’s Stone - Lihuang Wung & Gregory Youtz

Not everything can be found. Some things were made to disappear. In 1885, Tacoma forcibly expelled its Chinese community in what became known as the Tacoma Method. Families were marched from their homes, put on trains and told never to return. Businesses were left behind, looted and burned. Little Canton disappeared. Many of those who were expelled rebuilt their lives elsewhere, but Tacoma’s Chinese community was never re-established. What remains is not a street or a district, but a question. In this episode, you move across Tacoma’s working waterfront, through tideflats where a community once stood and toward the Tacoma Chinese Reconciliation Park, a place shaped by landscape, absence and the deliberate act of remembering. Lihuang Wung, the urban planner who helped shape the park after first becoming involved through calligraphy, guides you through the space where design, memory and landscape meet. Gregory Youtz carries the story into music through collaboration with Chinese American artists and rigorous historical research. Alicia Valentino of Psomas draws you beneath the surface into the layered tideflats, where traces of what once stood may still remain. “A character engraved on a plaque or a piece of rock is not enough. We want a place of power.” ~ Lihuang Wung 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘷𝘪𝘦𝘸𝘴 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘱𝘰𝘥𝘤𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘥 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴.

🎧 Power of Place Episode # | First to Find – Bryan Roth

Join us and be the first to find mysteries hidden in plain sight. Bryan Roth, co-founder and President of Groundspeak, shares how a simple act of curiosity in the Oregon woods sparked a global movement. Bryan traces the early days of Geocaching.com when he and a small group of friends worked late in Seattle basements and borrowed offices to build what would become a worldwide community centered on exploration and connection. The story begins on May 1, 2000 when the U.S. government ended Selective Availability and GPS accuracy suddenly sharpened. Within hours Dave Ulmer hid a black plastic bucket near Estacada, Oregon and posted its coordinates online. Inside were a few modest treasures waiting for whoever reached them first. That bucket became the world’s first geocache and opened a new way of discovering place. Bryan reflects on how geocaching grew from that moment into a platform that now guides millions through forests, coastlines and cities across the globe. His stories take us from Civil War battlefields to Frankfurt forests and into the Challenger Deep, showing how curiosity can link people across distance and experience. Joining us from Austin, Texas Marcellus Cadd, known as Atreides, brings humor, grit and insight shaped by his blog Geocaching While Black. Marcellus shares what first drew him to the game and what thousands of searches have revealed, from the Tunnel of Light beneath the Cascade Mountains to moments of unease in Texas. Through every clue, coordinate and encounter we are reminded that the world remains full of hidden things and that finding one another may be the greatest discovery of all. <p> “People are looking for a sense of belonging. And they are looking for community. Geocaching and the geocaching community provide that opportunity in a welcoming way. ~Bryan Roth <p> 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘷𝘪𝘦𝘸𝘴 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘱𝘰𝘥𝘤𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘥 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴.

🎧 Power of Place Episode # 63 | Between Trail & Tide – Rowan Hinds & Andrew Gardener

There is no road to Salmon Beach, so lace up your hiking boots. Join high school filmmaker Rowan Hinds and anthropologist Andrew Gardner as they guide you down the hill—past the bluff, beneath the madronas and into a shoreline community perched between tide and cliff. Reachable only by boat or a steep staircase, the beach you’ll discover hugs a narrow bend of Puget Sound known as the Tacoma Narrows. It’s home to 81 cabins on stilts and neighbors simply call themselves “Beachers.” Life here moves to the rhythm of the tide, the scent of salt air and the slow churn of generations. You’ll hear stories of cannon blasts, chainsaw diplomacy, creaking decks and driftwood forts. Listen as archival voices—captured through film and oral histories—recall landslides, fire and the rare joy of racing rowboats on the Fourth of July cheered on by a homegrown marching band. Raised by hand over time, with help from neighbors and materials scavenged from Galloping Gertie and Ruston’s old lumber yards, the cabins we visit carry the spirit of improvisation and care. Inside, voices shaped by saltwater, king tides and shared memory echo between the pilings. And when you head back up the hill, you carry with you a portrait of community carved into the rugged edge of the Pacific Northwest. “I regard almost every single person on Salmon Beach as my neighbor. I would even go as far to say as family because, as the saying, goes you can't choose your family; but you can choose your friends and you can't really choose who you live with at Salmon Beach. So, in that way, they become family.” ~Rowan Hinds
