check this out👇🏾my last story for @BaltimoreBanner looks at the intersection of regional Black vernacular and Black ASL, a distinct language used my Black deaf folks.
ASL isn’t the same as English. Black Baltimorean ASL is a language unto itself. buff.ly/rlYe2OB

For most of Wednesday, many Locust Point residents experienced something they had not all summer: quiet. The noisy military ships polluting the area near hundreds of residents finally left. Then — as mysteriously as they moved — one came back.

Such a well reported and written story @NinaCGiraldo ! The Locust Point ships beat lives on!
Since early June, many Locust Point residents have had to live with the constant hum of two nearby military ships. How loud is too loud?
@PatrickMcCas and I took to the streets to find out.

Such a blast to report! Go and read/listen to it and see just how loud those Locust Point ships get
Locust Point residents have had to live all summer with a constant hum, about the volume of a vacuum cleaner.
How does it compare to the loudest places in Baltimore? @PatrickMcCas & @NinaCGiraldo took to the streets (with a mic!) to find out.

Baltimore ended the first half of 2022 with 179 homicides, the worst first half of a year on record (since 1970).
Baltimore just ended the first half of 2025 with 68 homicides, which is the fewest on record.
That’s a 62 percent drop from 2022-2025
Thank you Greg! Incredibly proud to have my first byline in @BaltimoreBanner, and I'm so happy to be a part of the team.
Baltimore is getting SCORCHED by a heat dome. We mapped places Baltimore-area residents can find some relief.
So proud of our wonderful and talented data intern @PatrickMcCas who has his first @BaltimoreBanner byline!

Newsflash: The NEWS is being posted to *your platform* constantly by actual journalists. You know, the folks you dismissively call the “legacy media”. Without that content— what remains on X would be a toxic stew of nonsense, rumors, vitriol and conspiracy theories. You get it?

The University is complying with a federal regulation that they have been out of compliance with in the past, but it's doing so in such a way that students have to choose between completing their hard-worked-for degree or paying a lot.
