Last night University of Baltimore professor Elizabeth Nix talked to a packed house at the Enoch Pratt Free Library about the history of segregation in Baltimore as part of OSI-Baltimore’s Talking About Race series. She touched on the early 1800s, when Baltimore had the largest free African-American population in the U.S. and was not yet segregated, and connected the dots through the explosion of unrest in 1968 and the uprising and violence earlier this year.
