Albert Lee was born in South Korea to an African-American soldier father and a Korean mother. When he was five years old; he moved to the states. He grew up working-class. His background drove him to public service: In 2020 he ran for Congress; before his bid for election he graduated from law school and was the academic Dean at Portland Oregon’s Community College. “My background is that of folks who are often not heard or seen and not included. And that was part of the call to serve the public.” Lee spoke to Iván Resendiz Gutierrez about concrete obstacles Latinx and BIPOC face when voting. Iván Resendiz Gutierrez is a litigation and appellate attorney in the Portland office of Miller Nash Graham & Dunn LLP.
