In Easton, efforts to remove the Confederate monument known as the "Talbot Boys" have failed. The controversy continues, however, with the Talbot Branch of the NAACP and the ACLU of Maryland filing a complaint with the Open Meetings Compliance Board because minutes of a closed door session were not released.

In the second half, we look back at the history of racial tension  in Baltimore with Baltimore Sun Reporter Antero Pietila, author of, "Not in my Neighborhood: How Bigotry Shaped a Great American City".

Guests: Richard Potter, President of the NAACP Talbot County Branch

Deborah Jeon, Legal Director for the American Civil Liberties Union of Maryland
