Remembering the Riots

Lecture and Discussion Tuesday, April 15 5:00-7:00 p.m. For two weeks in April 1968, beginning in the dark hours following the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., the city of Baltimore was devastated by a series of civil disturbances that left six dead, dozens injured, and hundreds of properties burned, shattered, or in ruins. Jessica Elfenbein, professor and director of the Center of Baltimore Studies at the University of Baltimore , will speak about the Jewish experience during this tumultuous time, exploring their roles as mediators and victims.
