Synopsis

Baltimore. Many people only know the version of the city portrayed on “The Wire,” but it’s so much more. Baltimore is one of the oldest cities in the country. It’s one of the most diverse cities in the country. It’s the home of the national anthem. Baltimore is a conglomerate of neighborhoods - people from varied places, tribes, cooperatives - who work hard, love hard and travail together in hard times. There’s so much to love about Baltimore. Each chapter is filled with the love and excitement the author has for their native or adopted city and the love just keeps on overflowing. One chapter is a collection of essays of third graders from Robert Coleman Elementary School. They love Baltimore too although most of their excitement was fueled by food and fun and getaways! Infectious for the big kids too who talked about their favorite restaurants, clubs, hangouts. They talked about their favorite place to work, their favorite person, the person who most helped them become the people they are today. Baltimore. The Inner Harbor. Fort McHenry. The Reginald Lewis Museum. The National Aquarium. The National Great Blacks in Wax Museum. The Arena Players Theater. The Arch Social Club. New Shiloh Baptist Church. New Psalmist Baptist Church. Southern Baptist Church. Mt. Pleasant Church Ministries. Coppin State University. Morgan State University. Baltimore. An unending list of great people and places. These chapters are just the beginning of a never ending story of a magnificent place. Baltimore.
