Why Are They So Mad? An interview by Aaron Leonard Coleman. HIST112.001 Aaron Coleman �HIST 112.001 Oral History Assignment Baltimore Riots Aaron Leonard Coleman May 17, 2015 Baltimore Riots On the evening of April 12, 2015, Freddie Gray was arrested on unclear gun charges. He was taken into custody and thrown in the back of what locals call a “Patty Wagon” (pretty much a police van which is capable of securing multiple persons after arrest). The van made multiple stops on its way to the precinct, and upon arriving to the precinct Freddie Gray was unresponsive. Viral video of the actual arrest showed Freddie Gray being apprehended by three officers, not resisting with force, but screaming. He was being held down, then you see three officers escorting Gray to the Patty Wagon appearing to be struggling with a broken leg. The officers made multiple stops before Gray was taken to the precinct and at each stop the officers failed to medically assist him. When they’d gotten to the precinct, Gray was reported unresponsive with a partially severed spinal injury and a broken leg. He was reportedly in a coma and had to be taken to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center. He died a week later suffering from blunt force trauma to his spinal cord. Time and time again almost consistently after the murder of Trayvon Martin in 2012, and the acquittal from second-degree murder charges of George Zimmerman, who wasn’t even officer if I might ass, in 2013, the world has seen countless cases of young black men and women murdered by officers without conviction. The unrest seen in Baltimore from April 25 th and beyond, was a reaction to that. Some representations of protest were seen peacefully with hundreds of people marching through the streets of Baltimore, then April 27 th happened. Roughly around 10 a.m. on the morning of April 27th, message circled around social media that members of rival gangs would be coming together to target police and kill them. Surely the police had gotten this information just as soon as the general public received it if not sooner. The way they prepared for this occurrence only made the following events of the day much more intense. Police officers and squad cars from other neighboring cities and counties of Maryland were called for assistance in meeting this potential force from rival gangs. The area in which �HIST 112.001 Aaron Leonard Coleman Oral History Assignment May 17, 2015 Baltimore Riots the majority of officers were positioned affected neighboring high school kids from getting home by means of public transportation due to the fact that buses weren’t running because of this. As those kids had gotten out of school they practically had nowhere to go and then the tension began. From Mondawmin Mall to North and Pennsylvania avenue kids were throwing things at the officers and gradually began trashing property like neighborhood mom and pop shops and local convenient store CVS. As the day continued into night, malls across the city and been broken into and the city was practically on fire by the end of day. “Rioting is the voice of the unheard” – Martin Luther King Jr., was a caption that could be seen as CNN reported while interviewing different individuals from the community. The violence and looting was something that many individuals from the neighboring communities took kind to. Week long, people were found to be saying that violence is not the answer that it was complete outrage and was destroying the image of the peaceful displays of protest that had been put together prior to the rioting. Baltimore had now had the world at attention, has CNN committed almost all of their air time to covering Baltimore the days following, allotting only the rest to the catastrophe in Nepal were over 8,200 people died due to a 7.8 magnitude earthquake on April 25th. A lot of the focus after the rioting was on rebuilding the city and about teaching the youth of Baltimore how to peacefully protest. The question was why? Why on the exact same day as the funeral of Freddie Gray had the public reacted like this? What would the older generation teach the younger generation about protesting? Why were they so angry? The quotation I used earlier in the paper from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., was all the more fitting for CNN to use that day. Baltimore hadn’t seen demonstration like that since the 68’ Riots after King had been assassinated. Much like the riots back then people acted in outrage for not only one occurrence but a multitude of problems that plagued the black communities concerning civil rights at that time. In ’68 the voice of millions of unheard across American so to speak was silenced. Today the youth of �HIST 112.001 Aaron Leonard Coleman Oral History Assignment May 17, 2015 Baltimore Riots Baltimore, or the country moreover, doesn’t have a voice to speak for them and Freddie Gray wasn’t that voice he had become a part of the unjust bubble that has been growing for years in African American communities. That bubble burst in Baltimore on April 27th. People living in low-income households in run down neighborhoods, with high crime-rates and poor interactions between themselves and the officers that are here to protect and serve, all came together that day and let out its wrath in a very prolific way. When deciding who I should interview quite a few qualifications came about. I knew that talking to a youth involved in rioting, that would be close to my age, might not result in a good quality interview that would provide substantial content for my paper. I also knew that individual wouldn’t incriminate themselves to a complete stranger attesting to the fact that they had been involved in acts that in legal eye obstructed justice. These things considered, I developed the idea that I had to interview someone I knew personally that was in or around their 50s and had familiarity with the ’68 riots and could either correlate or contrast the two riots. For many kids, this was their first time acting against law enforcement and expressing their qualms in the world with social injustice. With that in mind I knew my father would be best fit for interviewing as he was old enough to see and remember what was going on in ’68 and he could speak on what the youth did from a more mature sense of perspective. I started with a asking about his childhood, he was born in ’58, a much different time in Baltimore. He described being one of few black families in his neighborhood, which is today hardly believable knowing that the city is predominately African American. My father declared that he didn’t necessarily have a feeling of inferiority to the police, but there weren’t officer friendly’s in his neighborhood either. He stated his bias early on in the interview as he said an officer murdered his dog at a young age and his disdain began there. My father stressed over and over again in the interview the importance of hard work. This was something I thought was taking me off track in the questions I originally planned to ask and caused me �HIST 112.001 Aaron Leonard Coleman Oral History Assignment May 17, 2015 Baltimore Riots to begin asking questions almost off the top of my head. In hindsight, critically-thinking I saw that work was something that plagued his life as he was surrounded by it in his father figures and surrounding community coming up, it was something you had to do. He wasn’t born into a family that lived off of social programs. Those programs had been introduced, but reengineered not long before my father was born with Lyndon B. Johnson’s Great Society. With a value of hard work, my father’s disposition on the current state of low-income neighborhoods in Baltimore was and outward perspective but one based on dependence. He felt that depending on and expecting the government to give them something accompanied with the closing of a lot of industry that created jobs for residents made things the way they are. In addition to that having law enforcement being abusive with authority and drugs problems with in the community just all came together to prepare a distasteful recipe. He didn’t want to compare the two riots as he felt the occurrences were on two different platforms. The anger and reasoning all come from the same place though. He began speaking on the economy and how Obama hadn’t been successful while in office, speaking on wanting a republican house to take over and bring industry back to Baltimore. He doesn’t think that will necessarily be the cure all but would surely bring jobs and opportunity to Baltimore. Growing up I knew my father had always been very politically aware. I didn’t know him to be much of a protestor, aside from the Million Family March in 2000, and the Jena Six march in 2006, both of which took place in Washington, DC. He took me with him to both, and has always had me watch CNN and MSNBC to remain aware of things happening in government and other areas of the world. I knew that interviewing him would be kind of like asking questions I had already known the answer to. Composing the interview I tried my best to ask questions that wouldn’t result in one word answers and him telling me that I already know how he feels on the particular situation. I believe it was successful overall, I got to learn some things I didn’t necessarily know about his upbringing and that time period. Also, I got to hear a perspective that I didn’t think was in line with the others I’d been hearing since the �HIST 112.001 Aaron Leonard Coleman Oral History Assignment May 17, 2015 Baltimore Riots rioting had taken place. His answers had a bit of political influence and tied well together in a broader spectrum to paint the picture of why kids were so angry. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Davis May 17, 2015 1 �BALTIMORE RIOTS 2 For a few weeks in April 2015 the city was in an uproar. The people young and old were rioting, looting and burning down their own city. The first thoughts of these incidents were memories of the riots of 1968. So much of what occurred was very similar even down to the month in which it all took place. In April 1968 the riots were in response to the assassination of a very popular leader during the Civil Rights Movement named Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and recently in April 2015 all this commotion erupted after the death of a young African American man named Freddie Gray. There were assumptions, made by the media and other sources, that police brutality was the cause of Freddie Gray’s death while in police custody. Those nights in April 2015, after the news of his death, the people started out protesting peacefully; however, it all evolved into violence and destruction of our great city. This report will give us different perspectives including results from three different interviews conducted with current citizens of Baltimore City. From these perspectives we will gain knowledge on how the recent riots compare to those of 1968, what kind of relationship the police have with the public and what kind of response could have protected our city. Conducting interviews was a great opportunity to learn the firsthand experience from other Baltimore City residence, other than the agitators and the media, who had some type of involvement in the recent riots. During the three interviews that were performed it was recognized that according to the age, background and knowledge of the interviewee, the impact of their personal feelings and their responses from these incidents was associated properly. The first interview was held the morning of May 11, 2015 in the University of Baltimore’s library with Mr. Clyde E. Boatwright. Mr. Boatwright grew up and also worked in the Sandtown, Winchester area of Baltimore city where the recent rioting and looting initiated. �BALTIMORE RIOTS 3 He is the Fraternal Order of Police President for Lodge #5 for Baltimore School police. Mr. Boatwright believes that people used the recent riots as an opportunity to express their personal beliefs and economic pain. The second interview was held the morning of May 12, 2015 at Baltimore City Hall in the office of President Councilman Bernard “Jack” Young. Councilman Young also grew up in Baltimore City and he is heavily involved with youth programs in the community. He showed a great interest in creating better relationships between the community and the police. The third and final interview was held the evening of May 12, 2015 in the University of Baltimore’s library with Mr. Ralph E Johnson Jr.. Mr. Johnson another native of Baltimore City is a writer and publisher. He was an active participant of the peaceful protest that took place to better community relations. All three interviews were a very enlightening experience as each of them shared their heartfelt feelings of how the riots affected our city/communities. Each interviewee also offered various suggestions on how the communities and their relationships with our leadership could be strengthen. The order of events was repeated in 2015 just as the pattern in 1968. According to Badger (2015) there was a funeral, protest, violence, curfews and cancelled ballgames. How ironic that history repeated itself in the shadow of those painful moments. Boatwright (2015) stated in his interview that from what he had heard of the 1968 riots, he felt that both incidents had similar effects. Badger (2015) goes on to say that each of those incidents brought a great shock amongst the Baltimoreans, as also expressed by Young (2015). The capacity for recovery of the low-income urban black communities was diminished. Young (2015) stated that the riots of 1968 were very massive and they left a lot of damage and even a tremendous loss of businesses that unfortunately never recovered. Peter Levy (2013) noted that in the magnitude of �BALTIMORE RIOTS 4 the 1968 riots fifty-four cities in thirty-six states suffered great lose from looting, arson and sniper fire. Councilman Young (2015) also believes that the riots of 1968 have no comparison to what we encountered in April 2015; on the other hand Mr. Johnson feels that the 2015 riots were a little different because in 1968 our resources and education was not as powerful as what we have today. Councilman Young added that he feels that deploying the National Guard just as they did in 1968 along with other state agencies was a great contribution in getting control of our recent riots. The police will always be an intricate part of our society, therefore the public needs to build better relationships with them to create new and improved community relations. According to Johnson (2015), if you do not have a positive relationship with the police you are on the brink of civil disorder. He adds that the culture of thinking in Baltimore has been “Them against Us” for a long time. Boatwright (2015) said that from what he remembers as a child growing up, there has always been a division between the police and the community. As a youth they did not like to police but they respected them. Boatwright (2015) also states that they had a mutual respect and the understanding that if someone broke the law, the police officer would bring them to justice. When speaking to Young (2015) he suggests that in order to help build the community trust with the police department we need to go back to community policing on foot patrol. Young (2015) did add that overall we still have a lot of good police on the force, we just need to weed out the bad seeds. It’s no secret that the neighborhoods that were tragically affected during these riots are poverty stricken and have a low education rate. Badger (2015) agreed that poverty and a lack of strong education is a major cause of our citywide crisis. Johnson (2015) and Young (2015) both mentioned several neighborhood programs that included the Police Athletic League and the �BALTIMORE RIOTS 5 Officer Friendly program as being beneficial to keeping our youth occupied in the past. According to Young (2015), these programs were educational and influential to our youth. The closing of these neighborhood programs could have caused additional fuel to the constituent’s anger. Education is a vital part of our youth’s growth and engaging in recreational activities could possibly help to release that anger. In addition to recreating youth programs, there were several things mentioned that could have protected our city from the riots. Boatwright (2015) feels strongly that to prevent the riots they should not have publicized it but dealt with the real issues; therefore the results could have been contained much better. Councilman Young (2015) suggests that there could have been a better plan of coordination by the school system, including parents and other government agencies to alleviate the initial riots. Johnson (2015) added that our leadership should make their presence in the neighborhoods more frequently and not only when it’s election time. In conclusion, there were three points expressed. There was a comparison of recent riots versus those of 1968, the relationship between the police and the public was viewed as a continued issue and it was felt that the riots could have been avoided if our community had some relationship improvements on a political and law enforcement level. The root of the 1968 riots took place because of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. but there were other issues as stated by Badger (2015) like higher rates of poverty and lack of education. The riots of 2015 used the death of Freddie Gray as a weapon to initiate the protest and an opportunity to solicit for justice but instead that continued anger was expressed in the wrong way. Our society is still suffering from years of frustration and historical oppression (Johnson, 2015). Boatwright (2015) says he thinks that this outrage was an opportunity for people (professional protestors) to force their agenda on others. �BALTIMORE RIOTS 6 An ongoing issue for many years has been the relationship between the police and the public which still needs to improve to address some major historical issues. Young (2015) stated that the public tries to give the police a black eye but they just need to remove the bad apples from the force. As far as protecting our city we have some work to do as Young (2015) expressed. He also added that the political leaders, law enforcement and government agencies need to work closer together to recreate youth programs in the communities to influence and educate youth in a more positive manner. History has repeated itself and we still need economical relief to be able to move forward and work together to strengthen our communities. �BALTIMORE RIOTS 7 References Peter B.
