TSP Folk,

Thank you for all the replies to the Baltimore situation. As a result, here are some additional resources for addressing Baltimore and related topics.

Subscriber and librarian extraordinaire, David Dillard, has put together a couple related guides on

Police Brutality:

and

Drug abuse and The War on Drugs:

.

Beth Benoit shared this excellent article about a media example

http://mic.com/articles/116859/frustrated-baltimore-councilman-tells-
cnn-just-call-them-niggers. Beth also suggests preparing

students beforehand because of the use of the N-word used here.

Learned helplessness is another relevant topic, as suggested by George Seymour. He passes along this interesting video

Diane Sunar suggested:

"Other issues might include questions about how negative individual experiences fuel collective behavior, the role of rumors, the role of social media, letting the oppressed also carry the burden of risk in trying to bring about change."

Here is a nice video satire of how the media and commentators often respond to minority behavior in these situations -
