“…if Baltimore don’t tell its story, we’ve seen time and time again, people will come and tell the story and the story will be told in a way that gets them more and more dollars. And people love crime and violence and sensationalism.”

Happy Election Day, all!

I find Juneteenth is a complicated day because while the holiday celebrates emancipation, this day is also the anniversary of the sale of the Maryland Jesuit enslaved community (the GU272) on June 19, 1838. 1/3 #slaveryarchive slaveryarchive.georgetown.edu/items/show/1

I've learned a lot about this community and their descendants over the last ten years. It has been an amazing, gratifying experience for me as a historian. Today I had a chance to mark the day at a Juneteenth celebration at one of their ancestral homeplaces, White Marsh in Bowie, Maryland. 2/3

The White Marsh Historical Society and Sacred Heart Church unveiled historical plaques today commemorating the enslaved people who lived, prayed, and died at White Marsh - and those who were sold away. It was a wonderful occasion, both solemn and joyful. 3/3

@shannondrayer.bsky.social The tour guide is listening to today's Mariners game, and wants Mr Hyphen to know that Baltimore has a train museum AND a streetcar museum. Just in case he has time off and wants to at least see the inside a train

I’m happy to have had my research featured in this piece for @wgbh.org! It’s a short version of the arguments I made in my book, namely that revolutionary Americans understood their government had a duty to protect them from epidemic disease. www.wgbh.org/news/local/2...
