What if, instead of seeing Baltimore as a collection of troubles, traumas, assets, resources and deficits … we looked at her as the heroine of a novel? Or maybe its hero? What would the story be? That’s the conceit of a gathering tomorrow evening at the Enoch Pratt Free Library. The conversation will be led by D. Watkins of East Baltimore, a writer and lecturer at the University of Baltimore and founder of the B-More Writers Project, and David Brooks of the New York Times and founder of “Weave: the Social Fabric Project” at the Aspen Institute. This event is co-hosted by Thread, a local nonprofit that surrounds struggling teams with a network of volunteers.
