A pre-apprenticeship program at Rosemary Anderson High School trains women and people of color to enter the construction field. Joe McFerrin II is the CEO of Portland Opportunities Industrialization Center, and William Parker is a student.

You may think you know how evolution works — Charles Darwin explained natural selection to us all in 1859. But a new book from science writer David Quammen explains that the tree of life is a lot more complicated than we may have imagined. “The Tangled Tree” tells the story of the scientists and the discoveries that have helped change our understanding of the origins of life on earth.
