And while the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has engaged the community about the issues caused by its estimated $36 billion NextGen flight control system — though with no results — the FAA recently disengaged from talks with the locals in late June after the state filed an administrative petition, with Howard County government following suit in mid-July. The separation has resulted in the muting of the D.C. Metroplex BWI Community Roundtable, which the FAA dictated be created to foster that very line of communication. The group will still meet, albeit less frequently.

Producing and Protesting Invisibility in Silver Spring
Rotenstein, David S. “Producing and Protesting Invisibility in Silver Spring, Maryland.” In Demand the Impossible: Essays in History as Activism, edited by Nathan Wuertenberg and William Horne, 89–111. Washington D.C.: Westphalia Press, 2018. PRODUCING AND PROTESTING INVISIBILITY IN SILVER SPRING, MARYLAND David S. Rotenstein Independent Scholar Introduction Silver Spring, Maryland, developed during the early twentieth century as a sundown suburb: an area covering more than ten square miles where ra- cial restrictive deed covenants prevented African Americans from owning or renting homes.1 Located in Montgomery County about 6 miles north of downtown Washington, D.C., Silver Spring did not begin desegregating its businesses until the late 1950s and housing discrimination remained legal there until 1968, when the county’s open housing law went into ef- fect. Despite dramatic changes in Silver Spring’s demographics and poli- tics, the community’s history and historic preservation efforts remain as segregated as its earlier public culture. New residents with no diachronic attachments to the community and a historically white and wealthy power regime complicate local efforts to make history and historic preservation more inclusive. African Americans, the Jim Crow era, and the civil rights actions that helped break down racial barriers in Silver Spring in the 1960s remain invisible in published histories and in the commemorative land- scape. I live in Silver Spring and I make my living in public history. In recent years, my work has focused on suburban gentrification and how people of color are displaced from communities and erased from the historical record.2 In 2011, my family moved from Silver Spring to an Atlanta, Georgia, suburb where African Americans were being displaced by aggressive real estate practices that were converting the city into a new wealthier and whiter sub- urban enclave. -
A Brief History of Silver Spring
A Brief History of Silver Spring In 1840, Francis Preston Blair, along with his daughter Elizabeth, discovered a "mica-flecked" spring near Washington D.C. (Mica is a type of mineral that flakes easily and is known for its glittery silver color.) He liked the location so much that he bought the surrounding land and created a summer home for his family which he called "Silver Spring." The city of Silver Spring, Maryland took its name from Blair's estate. Acorn Park, tucked away in an area of south Silver Spring away from the main downtown area, is believed to be the site of the original spring. Acorn Park in 1917– the acorn-shaped gazebo is visible at left Blair Family History Francis Preston Blair (April 12, 1791 – October 18, 1876) was an American journalist and politician. Francis Blair was father of Montgomery Blair, a member of President Lincoln's cabinet. Preston Blair’s daughter, Elizabeth Blair, married Samuel Phillips Lee, third cousin of future Confederate leader Robert E. Lee, and gave birth to a boy, Francis Preston Blair Lee. The child would eventually become the first popularly elected Senator in United States history. Silver Spring Grows The early 20th century set the pace for downtown Silver Spring's growth. E. Brooke Lee and his brother, Blair Lee I, founded the Lee Development Company, whose Colesville Road office building remains a downtown fixture. In the early 1900’s, Washington trolley service on Georgia Avenue (present-day Maryland Route 97) provided transportation through the city. The trolleys stopped running for a period of time, but were rebuilt again in 1948 with additional lanes for automobile traffic, opening the areas to the north of Silver Spring to suburban development. -
