Linda Grace Morris: Baltimore Boomer Tales from the Hood
Baltimore was the place to be in the 1950s and 1960s, bustling with all the industry and social change about to come. For African Americans, it was a jobs magnet with all the major manufacturers. Those living in Turner Station and Sparrows Point, the company town built to host the Bethlehem Steel Company, had the highest per capita income for African Americans in the nation. Cherry Hill, the only planned community built for African Americans by the Federal Government, lifted many Baltimore Boomers into the middle class. This podcast walks down memory lane through the neighborhoods and good times--despite segregation--that those growing up there can never forget.

Boomer Thoughts of the Week
Each week on Wednesday as I publish new episodes, I will give you some thoughts that I have collected since the previous week. These thoughts can pertain to something that happened over the course of the week, or they could be totally random. This week I am discussing feedback I have received from friends about the podcast. It would probably be helpful for you to listen to Boomer Thoughts on a weekly basis to give you insight as to where we are and possibly where we are going. This is more work than I imagined it would be, but I keep telling myself that at 77, I am up to the challenge. You be the judge.
