520    $a "Nicknamed both "Mobtown" and "Charm City" and located on the border of the North and South, Baltimore is a city of contradictions. From media depictions in The Wire to the real-life trial of police officers for the murder of Freddie Gray, Baltimore has become a quintessential example of a struggling American city. Yet the truth about Baltimore is far more complicated--and more fascinating.

To help untangle these apparent paradoxes, the editors of Baltimore Revisited have assembled a collection of over thirty experts from inside and outside academia. Together, they reveal that Baltimore has been ground zero for a slew of neoliberal policies, a place where inequality has increased as corporate interests have eagerly privatized public goods and services to maximize profits. But they also uncover how community members resist and reveal a long tradition of Baltimoreans who have fought for social justice.

The essays in this collection take readers on a tour through the city's diverse neighborhoods, from the Lumbee Indian community in East Baltimore to the crusade for environmental justice in South Baltimore. Baltimore Revisited examines the city's past, reflects upon the city's present, and envisions the city's future"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Urban policy $z Baltimore. $z Baltimore. 650 0 $a Sociology, Urban $z Baltimore. $z Baltimore. 650 0 $a Income distribution $z Baltimore. $z Baltimore. 650 0 $a Equality $z Baltimore. $z Baltimore. 651 0 $a Baltimore (Md.) $x Social conditions. 650 7 $a HISTORY / United States / State & Local / Middle Atlantic (DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA) $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / Public Policy / City Planning & Urban Development. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Discrimination & Race Relations. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a ARCHITECTURE / Urban & Land Use Planning. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Sociology / Urban. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / African American Studies. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Social Classes. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Equality. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00914456 650 7 $a Income distribution. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00968670 650 7 $a Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 650 7 $a Sociology, Urban. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01123961 650 7 $a Urban policy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01162489 651 7 $a Maryland $z Baltimore. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204292 700 1 $a King, P.
