Work Matters: Bakery Workers in Baltimore, Then & Now
A century ago, hundreds of small bakeries dotted the Baltimore landscape serving up fresh bread and baked goods directly to local residents. As grocery stores and supermarkets took over providing Baltimoreans with their daily bread, many neighborhood bakeries closed. Those that survived focused upon offering treats such as pies, cakes, and cookies or turned their own tasty specialties into brands beloved throughout the region. In a fast-paced digital world, baking remains a largely labor-intensive, non-computerized process. It still takes time for the dough to rise.
The Work Matters program series is made possible thanks to the generous support of the Mary Jean and Oliver Travers Foundation.

    I forget why most of the steel industry closed down in America. I grew up in western PA and remember as a kid my dad driving us past the steel mills. There was a unique smell in the air as the plants made whatever steel products they were making at the time. I still don’t understand why it shut down. Our politicians never protected our industries, they just their protected their bank and stock accounts. When will we the people learn DC and state pols are for themselves and not the working man.🤔🇺🇸
