Research Proposal

I have decided that I would like to research the riots that took place in Baltimore in April of 1968. I know that there is so much information pertaining to these riots, so I will be focusing on the reasons the riots started and the reactions of some people that experienced them. I am also interested in The Black Panther Party within Baltimore. Maybe I can find some interesting information regarding these two things that will somehow intertwine. I know that the University of Baltimore has an extensive collection of information and even a website devoted to the 1968 riots. Perhaps if I am not able to find much more information than the UB website contains, I can focus more on The Black Panther Party. I am sure that the Enoch Pratt and Langsdale libraries will have plenty of collections and pictures that will be helpful for researching. I am trying to think of places and things that I may photograph that pertain to these topics.
