The Glover Report: Are the people at the top of the ship talking to the people at the bottom?
Doni Glover (L) and Dr. Tyrone Taborn, Career Communications. Group, producers of BEYA.org. Taborn makes it his business to give back to students in the city.

(BALTIMORE – December 10, 2024) – When we look across the landscape of Black Maryland, it’s clear we have abundant resources and achievements to celebrate. Yet, alongside these successes, we face persistent challenges. Issues like health disparities, financial instability, and systemic inequities are often front and center in our discussions. However, one critical issue is rarely addressed.

In my view, a continual challenge lies in the divisions within our community, particularly along class lines. Despite our collective accomplishments, this divide seems to be growing wider. It’s as though the people steering the ship aren’t communicating with those below deck.

Our community has a wealth of talent—Ph.D.s, CEOs, and successful entrepreneurs. But do we remember to give back as more of us ascend to higher positions? Are we extending a hand to uplift those striving to reach their goals?

Politically, we’ve made significant strides, with Black leaders holding some of the highest offices in the land. But is this progress translating into empowerment for the broader community? Are our children thriving in schools? Are the curriculums reflecting our history and experiences, starting with a comprehensive teaching of Black history here in Maryland—real Black history?

Or have some of us, in our climb upward, forgotten where we come from? Have we decided to distance ourselves from the old neighborhoods, concluding they are beyond saving? Have we opted out of giving back altogether? Have we taken on the mindset of former oppressors when it comes to our own? These are questions we must confront to ensure that all members of our community share our progress.
