Baltimore After the Uprising: Three Trends Building a Fairer, Safer, Stronger Economy
http://www.nationofchange.org/2015/11/12/baltimore-after-the-uprising-three-trends-building-a-fairer-safer-stronger-economy/
1. Structural Racism: Naming it, centering it, and engaging in public dialogue about its history and present
Structural racism, as the term implies, is not about individuals, but the structure of American society. It is how many societal institutions work as they were designed to work, and together these institutions create different outcomes based on race.
2. Safety and Security: Developing a fuller meaning, understanding what it takes for all communities to have it, and making it a reality
The Baltimore Uprising focused attention once again on state violence—the blunt and lethal force of police practices. Policing continues to raise important questions about whose safety and security is protected by the state. In addition, Baltimore communities and a range of activists are elevating the reality that safety and security also require understanding the many ways that Black lives and Black communities are threatened every day.
3. Equitable Economies: Building and growing good jobs and opportunities for meaningful economic self-determination
At the heart of physical and economic security is the ability to care for and protect one’s self and community. Community-based organizations, technical assistance providers, democratic economic institutions, and a range of residents are having conversations, building coalitions, and thinking together about a better Baltimore with physical and economic security for all.
:thatsright: the OP. is any of this grounded in reality? my guess--> :stoner:
the points made:
1) on racism...How exactly is it better in Baltimore?
2) safety...How exactly is it better in Baltimore?
3) economy...How exactly is it better in Baltimore?
liberal fluff pieces like this throw me. How can you claim victory when the news says just the opposite?

I was going to bring that word that demoNrats hate to see "facts" but I see that VE already did it for me.
Oh and if the DUmp monkey ventures over here and see's this thread you better go after citydata for their racist data painting Baltimore as the cesspool it is. http://www.city-data.com/city/Baltimore-Maryland.html

So consecutively greater shooting and murders per month is a sign of better safety?
Having a record amount of murders in 2015 is a sign of better safety?
Only for the criminals.
I neither care nor have the energy but I bet sales tax receipts for Baltimore are at least 10% under 2014's.

It works for Chicago...[/sarcasm] :banghead:
Nothing can turn an oasis onto a cesspool quicker than putting a liberal in charge of it.

Beat me to it. Just saw that little gem this morning.
As to things to purchase in Bmore. I think you can also buy any kind of hair extension unless there has been a run on the store (aka lootin').
