My book Inheritance was written both out of deep love for my father and a fury over his refusal to see the white supremacy he had inherited and passed on. If you're looking for something for your difficult father, buy it from a local bookstore. charmcitybooks.com/item/uG_5-sYoQ…

Probably around 100 people, with more arriving, lining both sides of Pratt Stree in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, demanding “Let Gaza Live,” and banging pots and pans to protest the mass starvation being forced on the Palestinian people.

This isn't a story about optimism, nor is it one about pessimism. It's a stark understanding of how little this city cares about its Black residents and how in spite of that, people have created their own havens of community care. I think that's what defines Baltimore.

On the morning of April 12, 2015, at about 8:48 a.m., a 25-year-old Black man named Freddie Carlos Gray Jr. allegedly made eye contact with a police officer at the corner of North and Mount. baltimorebeat.com/a-mass-movemen…
