BALTIMORE, Md. — We're in the kitchen and in the community this week as we reflect on the stories you shared with us.
As always, thanks for sharing your stories with the WMAR-2 News team. We start this week's recap in the kitchen, where Black Girls Cook is cooking up more than food; they've found a recipe giving young girls leadership skills.
If you have a story for Cyera Williams, you can email her here.
Safer streets equal a safer place for students in East Baltimore. WMAR-2 News Jack Watson was in the community and talked to leaders and students at Henderson-Hopkins School about upcoming safety changes.
"Having safer, better streets and calmer streets is going to be good for the students and good for the community members and families."
If you have a story for Jack Watson, email him here.
Sticking with your safety, WMAR-2 News Blair Sabol headed to downtown Baltimore this week. If you've been downtown you may have seen various barriers in place, that's because work is underway to improve safety.
"Towns are retrofitting themselves in cities across America to be friendlier for people walking and biking. Those folks tend to spend more money, shop more frequently, hang out a lot longer in the downtown areas or in small business districts," Executive Director of Bikemore Jed Weeks told WMAR-2 News "Every other city in North America is doing this stuff and we've been behind, so it is encouraging to see us try to catch up."
You can see more stories here and watch our special "Your Voice, Your Stories" on Saturday at 11pm on WMAR.
