The Residential Segregation of Baltimore’s Jews (Migration)

The Residential Segregation of Baltimore’s Jews; Restrictive Covenants or Gentlemen’s Agreement?” by Garrett Power. Generations 1996. (Migration)Were Jews kept out of certain Baltimore neighborhoods, or did they choose to stay together? Power digs into history, finding no hard proof of exclusionary deed covenants but plenty of social and cultural forces shaping where Jews lived—and why....Next Generations: Turning the Page presents audio recordings from the Jewish Museum of Maryland's magazine, Generations. The Jewish Museum of Maryland’s Generations magazine, published from 1978 to 2012, offered 30 issues of insightful stories from more than 180 contributors, amateur and professional writers alike. Covering a wide range of topics, it became a cornerstone for sharing Maryland’s Jewish history and culture. More than a decade after its final issue, we are excited to reopen our transformed museum with an exhibit that reactivates Generations and explores the themes of Nostalgia, Food, and Migration.
