Center for American Progress Senior Fellow Sam Fulwood III was a reporter in Baltimore in the 1980s, and he has kept an eye on the place ever since. In this video column, Sam examines the underlying roots of the discontent in Baltimore, Ferguson, and dozens of other American communities.

Andrew Satter is the Director of Video at the Center for American Progress. Sam Fulwood III is a Senior Fellow at the Center and Director of the CAP Leadership Institute. His work with the Center’s Progress 2050 project examines the impact of policies on the nation when there will be no clear racial or ethnic majority by the year 2050.

The positions of American Progress, and our policy experts, are independent, and the findings and conclusions presented are those of American Progress alone. A full list of supporters is available here. American Progress would like to acknowledge the many generous supporters who make our work possible.
