Our daughter and SIL lived there for 2 years recently, and I was scared to death the whole time! When they voted, they were the only white folks in the place. Almost everyone else there, including the poll workers, had Obama buttons or shirts. I was so happy when they moved back here.
I have a former work colleague whom has lived all over the world - Belgium, Thailand, Germany, New Mexico, New Jersey. His wife wanted to go back to school and chose Hopkins. They live just off the Homewood campus and think B’More is the greatest place they’ve ever lived. I say to them ‘are we talking about Baltimore?’
