Baltimore was lovely —

Liminal Baltimore Sunset. #baltimore #sunset #liminal

we need to bring back the Baltimore Steam Packet Company

not for anything, but Committees of Safety/Bonds of Association, &c were established precedent in English history prior to 1776; indeed, they were the 'go-to' during times when people (as Anglo-Americans did in 1776) feared they were in a state of nature

It's like we scheduled our upcoming Revolution tour around this anniversary or something 👀

That’s right

Give us hope, Dr K!

Less than a week, now! Join us on Sunday!!

63 degrees Fahrenheit, yes please

And we have a NEW TOUR COMING SOON so this is a rare opportunity to go on our older but beloved Fells Point tour before the new tour takes over our schedule 👀

Ahem

I'd forgotten how hard the preface to DuBois's "Black Reconstruction" (1934) went...and am saddened by how contemporary it still feels.

If any #AWP26 attendees are still in Baltimore on Sunday March 8, you might enjoy our "Frederick Douglass’ Fell’s Point: Stories of Liberation in Black Maritime Baltimore" walking tour that evening...

Baltimore art does it different.

Fantastic to see/hear a conversation about monuments & memory, between (L to R in pic) Hamza Walker, Hannah Burstein, Nekisha Durrett, Dr. Jones @marthasjones.bsky.social, & Jennifer Kingsley (& Christine Rome (sp?) & Cameron Turner (sp?) & others), at the Walters Art Museum tonight 🧡

Eminent local writer Dan Rodricks described this tour (only semi-jokingly??) as the "literacy and caulking" walking tour. So. We are just saying. Lots of talk about reading and writing

If you are coming to Baltimore for #AWP26 you should know that we have: 1) a kickass two story radical bookstore 2) a worker owned vegan restaurant, coffee shop, and bar 3) a packed schedule of evening offsite events with 20 presses and 100+ authors redemmas.org/awp/

Omg amazing

Reading excerpts from my first book tonight for AWP at Pickles Pub. “Black Boys Don’t Cry in Front of Girls” is set to drop in December on @masonjarpress.bsky.social

Wrote a short piece about lemon sticks, the bittersweet exchanging of traditions, and the absolute enigma that is Baltimore. Link in comments 🍋

Baltimore! You are beautiful!

Baltimore folks - go outside it's gorgeous and the dirt bikes are out, truly a sign of Spring

Maritime history, liberation stories, all that jazz, in our "Frederick Douglass' Fell's Point" tour, returning next month! ⬇️

Reasons to go on a tour with @fullstorybaltimore.tours, Walters Museum edition. 1. A history tour of an art museum gives you a new and very interesting lens. Like, yes, I recognize that baroque illumination, but evangalization as colonialism is a key piece of the story.

2. Its an interesting perspective for how galleries are put together and curators arrange exhibits. Again, from an art but also a history perspective.

3. New museum game: Find Balthazar! Which is like "where's Waldo but more interesting. Especially in an expanded context Note: This may result in you standing in the middle of a gallery trying to replicate poses from various nativity sets to try and figure out what gift Balthazar is associated with.

4. A new view of the way the politics of identity change over time. I love that @fullstorybaltimore.tours do this constantly. In science, I think a lot about how the way we ask our questions frame what we find, and history is a constant reminder.

5. As always, the other members of the tour were an absolute delight. And you get ot learn from interesting people as well!

So now I need to plot the next tour I will drag my (suspecting) sister and other unsuspecting family members on.

as someone who has been on this tour: you, dear reader, should go on this tour. yes, you. do it

Maritime history, liberation stories, all that jazz, in our "Frederick Douglass' Fell's Point" tour, returning next month! ⬇️

Perhaps this will be fuel for another Catherine Fletcher book–inspired Full Story museum tour...
