Conference April 3-5 2008 The University of Baltimore hosts a three-day conference exploring the causes and effects of social unrest in April 1968 and the efforts at civic healing that followed and still continue. Sponsored by the Maryland Humanities Council, the Annie E. Casey Foundation, and Baltimore Collegetown Network, this public conference marks the fortieth anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. Scholarly presentations will be accompanied by sessions featuring witnesses to the riots and leaders of efforts to revitalize Baltimore in the months and decades that followed.
