Student Ava Perlin Writes Book to Promote Empathy and Inclusion

2 days ago | jmoreliving.com | Simone Ellin

There’s a long-standing tradition at Garrison Forest School in Owings Mills. In their junior year, high school students are asked to complete a “passion project,” unrelated to their studies, that they would like to explore in depth. When it was her time to choose a project, Baltimore County resident Ava K. Perlin didn’t hesitate. She knew right away she wanted to focus on her younger sister, Millie, who lives with Down syndrome.

Ghosts of Immigrants Past at Patterson Park Rally

1 week ago | jmoreliving.com | Michael Olesker

I went to Patterson Park over the weekend to join all those telling Donald Trump to stop being such a bully. He wants to rid the country of immigrants of color. It’s part of a plan: Make America White Again. There was a wonderful crowd at the glorious east-side park, a big and peaceful gathering although virtually all white. This figures. Any time you get people of color gathering in one place, Trump sends out armed men in uniform to snatch them away and their families are left bereft.

One-hundred-and-sixty years after the dastardly deed, you think you know the entire story of Abraham Lincoln and his assassin, John Wilkes Booth. But it turns out you don’t. In “John Wilkes Booth: One Night Only,” now playing through June 22 at Baltimore Center Stage, we’re offered some secret Booth family lineage.

By Elan Carr, Yehuda Karploun and Deborah Lipstadt(Editor’s Note: This column was submitted prior to the June 1 attack on pro-Israel activists in Boulder, Colorado.

Farewell to a Good Sport

That was a lovely crowd gathered the other day to bid farewell to Jim Henneman, who left us, at 89, after covering every sport around here — except maybe quoits — from the dawning of the Kennedy White House years until recently. He covered the Orioles for so long, and so well, that the ball club named the press box at Camden Yards after him.
Local Author Amy L. Bernstein’s Book Urges Readers to Leave Doubt Out

1 month ago | jmoreliving.com | Simone Ellin

Amy L. Bernstein can pinpoint the exact moment when she decided to stop letting the clutches of doubt interfere with her dreams. At the time, Bernstein was employed by the federal government and feeling exhausted and unhappy. “I was commuting by train from Baltimore to D.C., and one day I almost crossed the platform to take the train to New York to play hooky,” she recalls. “My longing not go to work and step out of my life was so deep and profound. I realized, this can’t go on.
Remembering Joe Nawrozki and All of Our Veterans

1 month ago | jmoreliving.com | Michael Olesker

On this Memorial Day Weekend, I’m thinking about my old friend Joe Nawrozki, who got cheated when he came home from his war. Joe never phrased it that way, but I will. He was one of the thousands who served in Vietnam and came home to a country that gave him the cold shoulder instead of the warm embrace. There were no cheering crowds for Vietnam vets. At best, there was indifference; at worst, there was blame for a hideous war that was out of their control.
What's So Great About Being The Greatest?

1 month ago | jmoreliving.com | Alan H. Feiler

Jordan or LeBron? Beatles or Stones? Brando or DeNiro? Lincoln or FDR? “The Babe” or “The Georgia Peach”? Americans seem to immerse themselves in endless loops of discourse about who is the greatest of all time – the “G.O.A.T.,” if you will — whether the topic is sports, medicine, entertainment or even municipalities.
