He continued to expand his direction into other genres of music including most notably hip hop and in both photography and videography.

Author D. Watkins came back to the school today for a really great “Conversation with…” The students just finished reading his latest book Black Boy Smile, a memoir about growing up in Baltimore.. Much of the conversation revolved around the book and the issues raised in it though D. also talked bout his writing process and other projects n the works. Mr. Watkins last visited the school in 2016 to discuss his just released work entitled The Beast Side.

We really appreciated his openness about his journey of self discovery while dealing with the intensity of life around him. Thank you Mr. Watkins!

We had the honor of having Baltimore journalist and documentary filmmaker Sean Yoes in for our “Conversation with…” this past week. Sean’s roots run deep in West Baltimore and his journalism includes as an editor of the Baltimore Afro-American newspaper as well as work on radio, television and podcasts. He was a frequent presenter and part of our summer youth program through the Environmental Justice Journalism Institute (EJJI).
The students were happy to have him back around the school talking about his life and work. Sean has pledged to come back in monthly, and we are all eager to have him teach us more about Baltimore’s history.
To learn more about Sean’s work check out this short work he produced on the infamous I 70 Highway to Nowhere that cut a deep wound in the Wets Baltimore community. (A full length documentary is planned) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5Jhr0tcy-w
Thank you for your work Sean and for generously sharing your time with us!
