“This is what we do!” (BALTIMORE – September 9, 2022) – Yesterday, Wes Moore was in Harlem Park with his team handing out water. Today, Mayor Brandon Scott came through. We understand from Lt. Gov. Boyd Rutherford that the Governor’s Office has been assisting, too. We are proud of this collaboration to address the E. coli crisis this week. We’re proud to see people working together. It is a beautiful thing. Also, a word from Linda Lomax, the special assistant to Baltimore City Councilman John Bullock. She made it clear today to Bmorenews.com that the men and women of the…

(BALTIMORE – September 8, 2022) – I’m not sure who is advising Dan Cox, the Republican gubernatorial candidate in Maryland who is supported by disgraced former Pres. Donald “Hold State Documents for Ransom or Future Business Deals” Trump, but whoever that person is, they need to take some notes from Team Wes Moore. The entire free world knows that portions of Sandtown and Harlem Park, particularly our most vulnerable Historic West Baltimore residents (our seniors), need water because of the E. coli bacteria recently found in the drinking water at very high levels. So, what did 40th district state Senator…

(BALTIMORE – September 5, 2022) – Baltimore is loaded with Black History, going back to the days when slavery was the law of the land. Despite the racist, horrific, and discriminatory practices of those times – some way, somehow Baltimore has also been a city where many Blacks have found and still find refuge. Some have even made huge strides for our race – right here in Baltimore, the birthplace of segregation. ‘A southern town with a northern mentality’ is how some describe “Charm City”. Maryland, of course, is just south of the Mason-Dixon line. Put differently, during the days…

(BALTIMORE – August 31, 2022) – Kudos to Tyrone “Doc T” Taborn, his queen of a wife (Jean), and their team for pulling together the most powerfully and beautifully diverse cross-section of Black Excellence – most of whom are based in the Maryland/DC corridor. God has blessed us to see some marvelous things, but this ensemble on Sunday in support of Wes Moore was nutritious to the soul. So often, the Black community is painted as everything except a child of God. Or, we have to be featured catching a ball, telling a joke, or dropping some lyrics – just…

By Hoes Heights Action Committee (BALTIMORE – August 29, 2022) – Since the renovation of the beautiful and historic Roland Water Tower (RWT), there have been many meetings shepherded by the Roland Park Community Foundation and its committees to discuss potential design options to enhance the green space surrounding the renovated monument. Unfortunately, the process that led to the permanent road closure of the tower advocated for and now being sought for final design approval by agencies of the City of Baltimore including CHAP (Baltimore City Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation) has not allowed for the voices of those most…

(DETROIT – August 7, 2022) – I have had the honor of being a guest of Doni Glover on BMORENEWS.COM since 2020 along with his winning team of guests that were seasoned warriors and experts in their fields.  I found out firsthand that Doni, an award-winning journalist, with his talent, imagination, and creativity, meticulously crafts and expertly engineers each show. That speaks volumes for a show that has been in existence for over twenty years. What came to my immediate attention was the positive tone of his show that still addressed the hard facts of reality.  In a masterful way, he…

(ANNAPOLIS – August 7, 2022) – Dear Doni, I last saw you at Maryland Live! Casino for an event for the Maryland Agricultural event last year. I don’t recall who you were sitting with at the time, but l stopped to say hello and reminded you that during the Ehrlich/O’Malley face-off, l initially was in the midst of challenging O’Malley in the primary before a life-threatening medical issue got in the way and l vacated that pursuit. I only point this out because you were the one person, the only person of standing, who showed me any respect by having…

(ANNAPOLIS – August 5, 2022) – “Congratulations to Doni Glover for achieving 20 years of BmoreNews. The online news service has served as an outlet to tell stories that are often untold from the point of view of those living in our Maryland communities,” said Lt. Governor Boyd K. Rutherford. “I applaud Doni for his steadfast commitment as a community activist and homegrown leader for the City of Baltimore and the state. I wish him and BmoreNews another 20 years of success.” Established August 9, 2002, in Baltimore, BmoreNews.com is presenting a calendar of events. —————————————– Two upcoming BmoreNews.com events…

On behalf of my family and my incredible running mate Aruna Miller, THANK YOU. The stakes could not be higher, but together, we’ll meet this moment with urgency and leadership. Maryland WILL be a state where we leave no one behind. The stakes of this election could not be higher. If you can help us kick off this general election campaign with a contribution, chip in here, and together, we’re going to get this done. https://lnkd.in/ehsv-fVA #MooreForMaryland

(BALTIMORE – July 19, 2022) – One of the last few weeks’ most extensive discussions or questions was, “what do we do with the squeegee problem in Baltimore City? “The problem has been longstanding, and many Baltimore Mayors have had to tackle the squeegee kid problem. It was not until recently, with an altercation between a squeegee kid and a motorist, which turned deadly, that sparked a more intense level of conversation. Let us call squeegee activity what it is actually- panhandling by disguise. Everyone knows that the service provided is not necessarily needed because the car has the function…
