In January 2015, she conducted a workshop in Tehran-Iran “What Is Your Secrets?” during which the girls shared their secrets through painting, collaging, and writing on cloths.

Excerpt from "Keeping 'Us' Safe in Baltimore" as posted in The Huffington Post blog. The full article can be found here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/amy-bhatt/keeping-us-safe-in-baltimore_b_7181428.html

I've been obsessively following the news and social media over the past few days in Baltimore. Over and again, the question of "safety" keeps coming up from residents and outsiders. As a Baltimore city resident and a parent, I can't help by wonder: what does it mean to be safe?

I live in Federal Hill, a neighborhood adjacent to the site of this week's protests in the Inner Harbor. It was one of the first to be redeveloped and is central to the city's re-branding as historic and hip. This neighborhood is more than 80 percent white and has a median income of $93,000 (compared with Baltimore's median income of $38,000). The community associations are active, and there are several beautifully kept parks, grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, shops, and a well-maintained library within walking distance from my home. We have access to the highway, regular public transit, and adequate public schools. This neighborhood has one-third the crime rate of the rest of the city.

As protests erupted across Baltimore's downtown and northern sections of the city, both peaceful and violent, the alarm bells sounded across the city's neighborhoods listservs and community groups. On Federal Hill, there were businesses that suffered broken windows and theft, but there were no incidents of violent encounters or residential disturbances. Volunteers came out across the city in waves to help with cleaning up streets and businesses.

Despite feeling a marginal impact from the protests, I've been reading and hearing people in my neighborhood (and others like mine) asserting that "we need to take back our city" or work "to make Baltimore safe again." It's clear who "we" are in these statements.

But what are we actually talking about?

Meet Nishay,

She is a Mechanical Engineering major, a URA Scholar and a T-SITE scholar. And Nishay is a strong proponent for women in Engineering. She believes there are not enough women represented in engineering. She aims to change that. In the future, she plans to pursue a Masters in Systems Engineering or join the work force.

How did you find your mentor for your research, scholarship, or artistic project?

Dr. Anne Spence is my faculty mentor as a T-SITE Scholar through the Center for Women In Technology (CWIT) and I was a teaching fellow for Mrs. Jamie Gurganus.

How did you know this was the project you wanted to do?

I knew I wanted to do something related to STEM education. When I found out about Dr. Spence wanting to introduce ENES100 (Spatial Visualization pilot course) at UMBC that could potentially help the retention of engineering students at UMBC in the long run, I knew that this was it.

Is this your first independent research project?

Yes.

How did you hear about the Undergraduate Research Award (URA) program?

Through my T-SITE Scholarship program mentor, Dr. Susan Martin.

What academic background did you have before you applied for the URA?

I was just a regular undergraduate student pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering with no prior research experience.

Was the application difficult to do?

I do not think it was difficult at all but it was definitely time consuming.

How much did your mentor help you with the application?

A lot. Even though, officially, I have one mentor, I also had two other mentors who helped me through the process and they still continue to be my support. A big shout out to all three of my mentors: Dr. Anne Spence, Mrs. Jamie Gurganus and Dr. Susan Martin for being there for me all the way and making it possible for me to even consider research.

What has been the hardest part about your research?

I like working in groups. This research is more independent work, so it gets a little hard to motivate myself to keep going, especially for the paperwork and preparation preceding the actual research, which can seem daunting at times. But once I started the actual research, it was all worth it.

What was the most unexpected thing?

Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval. Having no prior experience in research, I did not know that there was work that needed to be done before I could even get started. After having put in all that effort into the URA application itself, I could not believe that I had to do another application. But it is for good reason and was a great new learning experience.

What is your advice to other students about getting involved in research?

Its not easy but it is not impossible either. If you are thinking about research, I think it is definitely worth trying. There are so many professors willing to help, find one and just go for it.

What are your career goals?

I am actually divided between two things right now. I want to pursue a career in STEM education and/or work in renewable energy.

Did you transfer to UMBC from another institution?

Yes, I transferred from the Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC).

“How are you doing?”

It’s a simple enough question, but one that has a stronger implicit meaning this week. Many keep asking me “How are you doing?” pointing their eyes toward the city. I keep asking my friends “How are you doing?” with my mind flying to people dancing at North and Penn encircled by police in riot gear. It’s a simple question, but right now, it’s an important question—an important act of social justice that I want to emphasize, and that I believe is crucial to a Critical Social Justice movement.

By reaching out to one another, asking open-ended questions, and really just caring, we are taking some of the first steps toward activism in this Baltimore Uprising.

Don’t know quite what I’m talking about yet? That’s okay. Here’s a quick run-down: I’m talking about the recent often peaceful, often turbulent release of years upon years of tension in…

"Baltimore Cyclist Catches Riots In Action" From Bicycling Magazine, full article available here: http://www.bicycling.com/culture/news/baltimore-cyclist-catches-riots-action

Kate Drabinski rides around Baltimore everyday and writes about what she sees on her blog What I Saw Riding My Bike Around Town Today.

On Monday, her wanderings led her to a standoff between Baltimore police and high-school students from Coppin Academy.

Police had gathered outside the Mondawmin Mall, which is adjacent to the school and earlier in the day had been the site of looting following the funeral of Freddie Gray, the 25-year-old black man who died in police custody on April 19.

Drabinski watched as students crossed the mall parking lot to board busses that would take them home. Some kids started taking selfies with the cops and goofing around, she says, and the situation escalated. Drabinski backed away as police donned riot gear and moved to break up the crowd. “The cops were so heavily armed, it’s scary to think about what they were going to do, and I didn’t want to be in the way,” she said.

She managed to grab one shot of the chaos with her iPhone but didn’t fully understand its significance until she arrived home and learned of the extent of the riots. “Taking the picture and writing about it helped me understand the difference between what was going on in the news and what I saw. It helped me understand how escalation can happen,” she said.

Drabinski, who teaches gender and women’s studies at the University of Maryland Baltimore County, rides daily because she believes it gives her a better sense of a community—its achievements, problems, and shifting moods. So she was not surprised by Baltimore’s riots. “One of the things that I’ve learned from riding a bike around the city all the time is that you can see the things that people are organizing about. Ride your bike and keep your eyes open; you’ll see a lot more.”

Unclear about the various perspectives on what led to Freddie Gray's death?

Puzzled by the reactions and responses of your classmates and colleagues - particularly those of African descent?

To begin to explore some answers to these questions and more, we invite you to read a few articles recently shared with us by one of our campus faculty partners Dr. Joby Taylor, Director of UMBC's Shriver Peaceworker Program.
