Departing from where the headlines and media coverage left off,
Greg Pierotti’s B-More asks residents
of Baltimore to tell their stories. A multitude of perspectives
from youth, elders, activists, educators, police officers, and
the friends and neighbors of Freddie Gray all examine, defend, or
defy the racist structures that caused yet another death of a
black American citizen in an incident of police violence in their
community.
