Anti-Racism, Social & Racial Equity

In fall 2024, our 1968 seminar at Johns Hopkins had the great honor to partner with the AP African-American history class at the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute (thx to Dr. Maureen O’Neill and Patrice Frasier) and the Maryland Center for History and Culture (shout out to deborah Wood and Winter BearKing) for a third time. We were also grateful to Afro Charities, Deyane Moses and Oyinda Omoloja specifically, for working with us and offering a comprehensive workshop in the history and digital archive of the Afro, the oldest, continuously published, Black family-owned newspaper in the US. Special thanks as always to the Hop Retro Team and Allison Seyler for supporting our students and helping us better understand JHU’s history and place in Baltimore.
