This workshop takes a deep dive into the racialized landscape of development, gentrification, policing and criminalization of young people in Baltimore. Baltimore is a city struggling with economic divestment and distress, rapid gentrification and problematic zoning. How do these complicated dynamics impact millennials of color in Baltimore? Come hear stories and analysis from three local organizations that are mobilizing young people around issues of race, gender, sexuality, criminalization and public space.
