(BALTIMORE – September 20, 2026) – A woman called me out on Facebook, and I will be honest: She pissed me off. She challenged me over my support for David Bramble, the West Baltimore native and co-founder of MCB Real Estate whose company acquired Harborplace and is involved in major development along West North Avenue. She questioned why people conflate MCB’s interests with those of Baltimore’s Black residents. She pointed out that MCB is not an MBE. She questioned the relationship between Bramble and Mayor Brandon Scott. She even compared Bramble to Ronald Lipscomb. Then she wrote, “Come on, Doni. You’re better than that.” That got under my skin. Why? Because she got my number. I do have a soft spot for Black men from Baltimore who rise high enough to move money, land and power. I do want to see Black men make consequential moves. Considering the history of this city—and this country—I believe it is long overdue. But there is more to my perspective than racial pride. Around 1999, some 27 years ago, I began writing for The Baltimore Times. It is a Black newspaper that has served this city for more than four decades. When I was getting started, The Baltimore Times did something I will never forget: It allowed my website to appear with my byline. That may sound small today. It was not small then. Not every newspaper was willing to do that. Some wanted my writing. Some wanted my front-page stories. But The Baltimore Times allowed me to build my own platform while contributing to theirs. That act of generosity and vision mattered to the future of BMORENews.com. For nearly 30 years, I have watched Peter and Joy Bramble serve Baltimore through that newspaper. They gave this majority-Black city another important media voice—one with its own style, priorities and commitment to positive community news. Anyone who has spent time with Joy knows how authentic she is and how deeply she cares about people. That is the family history I carried with me when I began getting to know David Bramble. Does that history affect the way I see him? Of course it does. I will not insult my readers by pretending otherwise. Journalism does not require us to be people without memories, relationships or perspective. It requires us to be honest about those things and still follow the facts. So, yes, I want David Bramble to succeed. I know what his family has meant to Baltimore. I know he comes from West Baltimore. I know he lives near the same North Avenue that has endured disinvestment, violence, sirens, helicopters, vacant buildings and broken promises for generations. I also know what has not happened there. The daycare center near North Avenue and Interstate 83 was built around 1970. I know because I was part of its first graduating class. For most of my lifetime, virtually nothing transformative happened at that property or along large stretches of West North Avenue. Baltimore became accustomed to neglecting communities…
