As ethnographers working in the same neighborhoods where the Baltimore Uprising took place, we debated the representations we would make, cognizant that, in an atmosphere of both overt and covert racism, any representation we produced would be subject to political appropriation from the same mass media we were criticizing. However, we were not the only actors in Baltimore's representational field, and, instead of making our own ethnographic films, we began to look to the representations of the city produced by the youth who were directly impacted by the structural forces that precipitated the uprising. In doing so, we are advocating anthropologists on certain occasions to “push it along,” or in other words, speak alongside our collaborators to ascertain a more nuanced vision of events through a networked anthropology.application/pdf17 pagesen-USFreddie GrayAnthropology and racismMass media and racismAnthropologists and mass mediaYouth and racismBaltimore Riots, Baltimore, MD., 2015Text
