  • Legislative Report Card
    2018 LEGISLATIVE REPORT CARD LEADERS OF A BEAUTIFUL STRUGGLE 1 Greetings, Thank you for engaging Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle’s 2018 Legislative Report Card. As Baltimore’s grassroots think tank, we pride ourselves on providing public accountability and transparency regarding both our elected officials and public policy issues. Our unapologetic Black political analysis and policy training allows us a unique opportunity to guide the Baltimore community through the complex political terrain. To establish a more racially equitable Baltimore it is essential that we have honest and straightforward conversations about the structural dynamics that have often plagued our city. The lesson from the 2015 Baltimore Uprising is that when we fail to invest directly in our communities, the entire region suffers politically and economically. LBS’ values are grounded in the fundamental idea that the Black community can self-determine it’s trajectory when given the appropriate resources and structure to do so. We should not simply wait for our elected officials to do the right thing when they are in office. We elect them, and therefore, we should be the judge that assesses whether or not they are working in our best interests. This report card, the first of its kind produced by our organization, hopes to move our city in that direction. Founded in 2010, Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle has been a consistent voice in Annapolis on a litany of public policy issues – particularly criminal justice reform. What you’ll read is this document are our analyses of what legislators have done during their 2014-2018 terms as state legislators.

  • Introduction to the Ratification of the Constitution in Maryland
    Introduction to the Ratification of the Constitution in Maryland Founding the Proprietary Colony The founding and establishment of the propriety government of Maryland was the product of competing factors—political, commercial, social, and religious. It was intertwined with the history of one family, the Calverts, who were well established among the Yorkshire gentry and whose Catholic sympathies were widely known. George Calvert had been a favorite of the Stuart king, James I. In 1625, following a noteworthy career in politics, including periods as clerk of the Privy Council, member of Parliament, special emissary abroad of the king, and a principal secretary of state, Calvert openly declared his Catholicism. This declaration closed any future possibility of public office for him. Shortly thereafter, James elevated Calvert to the Irish peerage as the baron of Baltimore. Calvert’s absence from public office afforded him an opportunity to pursue his interests in overseas colonization. Calvert appealed to Charles I, son of James, for a land grant.1 Calvert’s appeal was honored, but he did not live to see a charter issued. In 1632, Charles granted a proprietary charter to Cecil Calvert, George’s son and the second baron of Baltimore, making him Maryland’s first proprietor. Maryland’s charter was the first long-lasting one of its kind to be issued among the thirteen mainland British American colonies. Proprietorships represented a real share in the king’s authority. They extended unusual power. Maryland’s charter, which constituted Calvert and his heirs as “the true and absolute Lords and Proprietaries of the Region,” might have been “the best example of a sweeping grant of power to a proprietor.” Proprietors could award land grants, confer titles, and establish courts, which included the prerogative of hearing appeals.

It includes high- and low-rise apartments, condos, row houses, and single-family homes. Few neigh- borhoods in Baltimore City have such varied housing stock or density. This architectural diversity is positive, but it can create issues that divide us. Our strength has been that we all support one another when a particular need in one part of our neighborhood becomes a serious issue. Calvert School's current request for approval to demolish Castalia, to raise the cap on enrollment at the school, and to tear down the former fraternity house at 3906 Canterbury and build an addition on that site to the school's cur- rent facility challenges our unity. Some Tuscany-Canterbury residents are Board of Directors deeply concerned about the Castalia issue; others believe that the main issue is Andrew Joseph (A. J.) O'Brien an increase in Tuscany Road traffic resulting from expanded enrollment; still oth- ers want Calvert's purchase of 3906 Canterbury and the proposed addition to President the school to be more clearly explained. Our Association must respond to all of (410) 235-6093 these concerns as a single package. As a result, it's important that each resi- [email protected] dent try to understand the different viewpoints on each of these matters so that so that we can present a unified position on all of them in our dealings with Carl Hyman Calvert.

Maryland Law Review VOLUME XII SPRING, 1951 NUMBER 2 THE ESTABLISHMENT OF LEGISLATIVE POWER IN MARYLAND By CAM. N. EVaErn* The General Assembly of Maryland first convened in 1635, less than a year after the settlement at St. Mary's. It began then a notable record of self-government for the colony and State of Maryland, making over the succeeding centuries a solid contribution to the prestige of the legisla- tive process. There would have been no compelling reason in the early seventeenth century to suppose that the Maryland General Assembly would be a successful venture in repre- sentative government. The art of popular government had been evolving slowly for a number of centuries in England, yet by 1634 its development was only rudimentary. Legisla- tive power was still a negative force; the drive and initiative in government remained with the executive, as vested in the monarchy.
