  • 2 ELEPHANTS IN THE ROOM: Deinstitutionalization - Disorders Are Not Crimes
    Over the years, some disorders have transitioned from at one time being considered crimes to being understood as complex psychological experiences. In the 70s deinstitutionalization was a practice that attempted to reduce the human rights violations that were often imposed upon those who struggled with mental health disorders. In this episode of 2 Elephants In The Room, Erin and Alicia discuss the impact of treating mental health disorders as crimes and the importance of a greater understanding of these disorders to reduce negative stigmas. What do you think about the way we treat the mentally ill in our society? Let us know your thoughts! Comment below with ideas for topics you want us to discuss.

  • PIZZA & POLITICS: Dainty Dolls Salon Owner, Kene
    You ever stumble upon a great hairstylist? Not typically. Usually it's through word of mouth and even than, you could still end up looking like me in 5th grade when I let my best friend flat-iron my hair with a comb and an iron. But, as luck would have it I DID find a great hairstylist just by walking past Dainty Dolls Salon on 810 N Calvert St. Kene, the shop owner and stylist, is so personable, you'll swear you've known her for years. Listen to her story as a female entrepreneur in Baltimore.
