    While growing up in an African-American Baptist church, Harris Thomas was taught homosexuality is an "abomination in the eyes of God."

  4. Revelation at the Walters

    People passing through the intersection at Charles and Centre streets recently may have noticed an intriguing banner hanging from the wall above the entrance to the <a href="http://findlocal.baltimoresun.com/mount-vernon/art/art/the-walters-art-museum-baltimore-museum">Walters Art Museum</a>. The oversize image depicts a black woman dressed in the manner of a 16<sup>t</sup><sup>h</sup>century Italian lady-in-waiting, who returns our gaze with an expression of ironic, amused self-awareness.

  7. The bloodiest day: The legacy of Antietam

    One hundred fifty years ago today, two great armies clashed in a titanic struggle that would decide the fate of a nation. "Around a cornfield and a little white Dunker church, around a stone bridge and in a pasture lane worn by cow paths, surged a human tornado," wrote Carl Sandburg many years later. Never before or since has such a deadly concentration of firepower been unleashed on the American continent.
