Baltimore busting out with redevelopment projects. Can we just please stop the killing? | COMMENTARY
Baltimore appears to be busting out of the pandemic with impressive redevelopment projects. And yet the killings continue. - “If we allow Agent Orange to be forgotten, then the tragedy of pesticides will continue," Tran To Nga, one of the protagonists of the documentary "The People Vs. Agent Orange," says in the film that premieres Monday on PBS.
- Remember when everyone was panicking about inflation, warning ominously about 1970s-type stagflation? OK, many people are still saying such things, some because that’s what they always say, some because that’s what they say when there’s a Democratic president, some because they’re extrapolating from the big price increases that took place in the first five months of this year.
- A remodeled arena won't solve the city's problems. But just as there are other hopeful trends, from the renovation of Penn Station to the revival of Lexington Market, every new investment is welcome.
- Radically conservative politicians want to limit the ability of teachers to talk about structural racism because it may lead their sons and daughters to question the racism still embedded in the U.S.
- Among the ideas: Administer an empathy test to every candidate for public office.
- A walk along Washington Boulevard in Pigtown can raise your hopes for Baltimore, but a few blocks along, and the challenges get steeper.
