My recent piece just got published as the cover of City Paper today! The theme is to show a “college wonderland”, which is parallel with the “real world”. It is a really good experience for me. Big thanks to Prof. Alex Fine who recommended me to make this project!

Unsolved Mysteries (Netflix 2020): “Mystery on the Rooftop”
Belvedere Hotel, Baltimore, Maryland
If you have watched episode 1 of the new Unsolved Mysteries on Netflix you will have seen the crime scene at the Belvedere Hotel in Baltimore. The body of Rey Rivera was discovered in an unused room at the back of the hotel. He seemingly appeared to fall from the sky and through the lower roof of the hotel. His body was discovered several days after his disappearance. They found his car parked in space #7 in a lot next to the hotel. A hole in the lower roof of the Belvedere could be seen from the parking garage attached to the hotel. When watching the episode I noticed a times it seemed like the lower roof was fairly flat but in person you can see it has many layers. I could easily walk to the top of this parking garage from the street and use the elevator or stairs to the top. There were several doors in the stairwell that led to parts of the hotel. One door led to a roof next to the room the body was found. Another door accessible from the stairwell appeared to lead right into the room he was found. I tried the door but it was locked at this time. But was it locked in 2004? I was able to access the hotel via the parking garage, I walked right in and never saw another person until I exited through the front. The fact someone could have easily gotten in the room the body was found to stage it like a suicide seems like it was not addressed in the episode.

“Riots work. And I’ve never said it in that way before. But I’m an American because of that riot,” Killer Mike says, citing the Boston Tea Party. “So when people say riots don’t work: Ferguson was over 60 percent as a black community. They had less than 60 percent representation in politics, far less. Post-riots, they have two new black city council members, they have actual advocates in the community now, and the police chief retired. So if it was argued that riots worked for Ferguson, absolutely they did.”
-Killer Mike, from an interview with Rolling Stone, August 6, 2015

“When nonviolence is preached as an attempt to evade the repercussions of political brutality, it betrays itself. When nonviolence begins halfway through the war with the aggressor calling time out, it exposes itself as a ruse. When nonviolence is preached by the representatives of the state, while the state doles out heaps of violence to its citizens, it reveals itself to be a con. And none of this can mean that rioting or violence is "correct” or “wise,” any more than a forest fire can be “correct” or “wise.” Wisdom isn’t the point tonight. Disrespect is. In this case, disrespect for the hollow law and failed order that so regularly disrespects the community.“
-Ta-Nehisi Coates, “Non-Violence as Compliance”

Just because your surroundings aren’t ideal doesn’t mean you can’t create something beautiful.
