New Website Documents Civil Unrest In Baltimore
BALTIMORE (AP) -- The Maryland Historical Society has unveiled a new website that features photographs, videos and oral histories from the recent civil unrest in Baltimore following the death of Freddie Gray.
The website, www.baltimoreuprising2015.org , is a collaborative effort between the historical society and faculty from the University of Baltimore and the University of Maryland Baltimore County.
The aim of the website, according to a news release, is to encourage people to "participate in recording and preserving history as it unfolds."
The site will also have a feature that allows people to contribute digital material to the trove electronically.
