But this quote from the orchestra's executive director, whose tenure predates the current administration, suggests an astonishing ignorance of the anthem's history as a site for protest. 2/

If you don't read past the headline, you would think this is simply more of what we've come to expect from an authoritarian administration. 1/

The reasoning does not "remain unclear." Starbucks' own website says that they are closing stores all over the country as part of a restructuring, and Fox and Sinclair know it. The goal is to misinform viewers so that they blame Baltimore for these closures.

The contraption on the pillar to the left of the Royal Farms entrance booms out a police-helicopter-like message, ostensibly to deter loitering. (This seems to have replaced their previous approach of playing classical music.) Staggeringly dystopian.

Baltimore's extraordinary, longstanding grassroots violence interruption organizations have "...probably done some good"? He refuses to think beyond the narrow, regressive, and dangerous approaches of broken institutions that he purports to critique in his work.

We finally made it to "Heavy with History," the Devin Allen installation at the Baltimore Museum of Art. It's been a challenging summer, one that left me feeling uncharacteristically disconnected from Baltimore. Spending time in this room changed that. 1/2

How soon will the students who have been protesting over the past two years be invited back to campus as honored guests/scholars-in-residence?
![[Roseann] Canfora was one of 25 people indicted in connection with the demonstration, and among the vast majority who were later exonerated.
"Those trials were eventually thrown out for lack of evidence that we had participated in a riot," she explains. "Even though we were grateful that those indictments were thrown out ... we had lost our opportunity to tell the world what happened that day."
Canfora has spent the intervening decades working to correct the record and preserve the legacy of May 4 — and now works as a professional-in-residence at Kent State, teaching journalism and helping plan its annual commemorative events.
The events at Kent State more than five decades ago, she says, hold some especially timely takeaways today.
"It's hard to believe that this will be our 54th year of returning to the Kent State campus to talk about what we witnessed and survived here, and to tell the truth that we know so that ... people learn the right lessons from what happened here so that students on college campuses can exercise their freedom of speech without the fear of being silenced or harmed," Canfora says.

I had to see Amy Sherald's "American Sublime" exhibit during a whirlwind trip to NYC last weekend. It is a privilege that we can claim Sherald as a Baltimore artist. Her portraits – none more so that this one of Breonna Taylor – look at you more than you look at them.
