Another Srceening of Baltimore Still Rising

Following the film screening will be a panel discussion.

The Baltimore Legacy Project is a series of interviews that culminates into a documentary series (docuseries) and is based in the belief that the stories, experiences and reflections of the elders of Baltimore are crucial in preserving Baltimore’s legacy.

Baltimore Still Rising is the powerful first installment of The Baltimore Legacy Project, a documentary series. Baltimore Still Rising gives voice to the people who lived through one of the most pivotal moments in the city's history. In this debut episode, we hear from 20 Baltimore residents who share their personal stories and first-hand accounts of the aftermath of Freddie Gray’s death in 2015, following his tragic encounter with the Baltimore City Police. Through intimate interviews, the documentary captures the raw emotions, frustrations, and resilience that defined the city’s response to the injustice and unrest that followed. Baltimore Still Rising is not just a recount of events—it is a testament to the ongoing fight for justice, the spirit of community, and the hope that, despite the challenges, Baltimore is a city still striving to heal, rebuild, and rise above.

This world premiere of Baltimore Still Rising combines a powerful documentary screening with a panel discussion featuring activists who were directly involved during the 2015 Uprising. This event offers a rare opportunity to connect the themes of resistance, activism, and policy change—core ideas in historical scholarship—to the lived experiences of a modern movement. It’s a chance for them to see history in motion, bridging the lessons of the past with the challenges of today. This documentary is is not merely a recounting of events; it is a contemporary lens on the continuous struggle for justice, community rebuilding, and systemic change. It reminds us of the cyclical nature of history and the enduring need to learn from the past to build a better future.
