Is Public Housing a Playground for Sexual Predators? - Duration: 5:35.

Taya Graham: This is Taya Graham reporting for The Real News Network in Baltimore City,

Maryland.

I'm standing in Perkins Homes, what might be the next battleground for low income people

to be able to live in Baltimore's upscale housing.

But our investigation here has revealed other uncomfortable facts, which shed light on just

how difficult life already is for the people who live here.

Speaker 2: The projects is bed bug infested, roach infested.

I mean, I just think the government need to put some money in these projects.

Taya Graham: When housing officials first announced they had selected a luxury developer

to rebuild Perkins Homes, a low-income housing project near Baltimore's gleaming inner harbor,

there was anxiety among the residents.

Speaker 3: And I am worried because they had said several things and didn't keep their

word.

Taya Graham: But as we explored the lives of the people who live here, other troubling

facts emerged.

Speaker 4: But then I started experiencing, in the bathroom and the kitchen, these big,

black spots, like in the corner of the bathtub, which was, they say, mold.

Taya Graham: We toured poorly maintained apartments, and heard stories of repairs unfinished.

And even more disturbing, allegations of sexual harassment of residents.

Speaker 5: Either they're trying to get your phone number, they're trying to have sex with

you, they want to charge you for all of these things.

It makes you really not even want to call them.

Taya Graham: In fact, The Real News obtained this, a notarized statement from a resident

who said she was asked to pay for repairs with sex.

She submitted this notarized complaint in 2015, but heard nothing back.

So, we asked the Housing Department what happened, and they told us they never received it.

We dug deeper, and we found that since 2016, that 18 sexual harassment complaints have

been filed by residents.

Complaints the Housing Department would not tell us how they resolved.

The notarized statement we obtained is disturbing.

The Housing Authority installed a generator because there was no power in half of her

house, but it was so loud she and her child couldn't sleep.

The maintenance worker asked for money to remove it, and when she couldn't pay, he asked

for sex.

Quote, "At about four years ago I had a problem with my electricity cutting off in different

rooms.

I called the maintenance office to see if someone could check it out.

The next day he came out with a big generator and stated he was leaving this here overnight

to help my lights work better.

I could not sleep because it was so loud and noisy.

The next day he came back out to my house to pick the machine up, and he said it would

cost me $150.

I did not have it because it was the end of the month, and I had no more money to pay

him.

He stated to me, 'Well, we can have sex to clear this bill up.'"

End quote.

This echoes a similar scandal at the city's Gilmore Homes project, which emerged last

year.

There, the city settled a lawsuit for six million dollars after at least a dozen residents

said they had been asked for sex in exchange for repairs.

Speaker 6: He asked me to send him some pictures.

And I asked him ... Pictures of my feet.

He wanted pictures of my pedicured feet.

I felt invaded.

I felt disrespected.

I let him know I felt disrespected, because I wanted to know what made him think, just

because he asked for pictures of my feet, that he should get them.

Taya Graham: This controversy comes amid the news that the city is considering giving the

developer of Perkins a massive tax break to rebuild it.

According to the Baltimore Sun, the Housing Department is contemplating offering BD Development

a TIF, or tax-increment finance deal.

It's a subsidy that allows developers to pump their property taxes back into building and

infrastructure, a possibility that didn't sit well with residents.

Speaker 7: I just hope it be better than how the living conditions is now, because if they

gonna get all this money to do, you know, fix up the buildings, fix up the community,

and it still looks the way it looks now, then that's a big concern, because they getting

money to fix it so we can live better, so kids can live better.

Taya Graham: BD has benefited from this type of largess before.

In 2013, the city gave his firm a 104 million dollar TIF to build the luxury development

Harbor East, a property that sits just a half mile from Perkins Homes.

Speaker 8: Do you think a big tax break to a luxury developer is gonna actually help

the residents who live here?

Speaker 7: I would really hope so, because that's what the big move, for real, the big

plan.

So, I would really hope so that it's for the community and for the people.

Taya Graham: We asked the city housing authority for comment, and they declined.

But despite the talk of big plans and tax breaks for the wealthy, residents here continue

to suffer and wonder if a community that showers money on the already rich will continue to

ignore their pleas for help.

Speaker 7: I need to be concerned because I don't really know what's going on, and what's

gonna happen for me and my kids.

Taya Graham: We will continue to follow this story as it unfolds.

This is Taya Graham and Steven Jannis reporting for The Real News Network in Baltimore City,

Maryland.

John Mielke - School of Public Health and Health Systems, University of Waterloo - Duration: 1:55.

The relationship between a mother's nutrition during pregnancy and the

health of her baby is well established. But the impact of her social experience

is less well understood. My name is John Mielke and I'm a researcher in the

School of Public Health and Health Systems. I'm interested in how a person's social

experiences become biologically embedded. In particular experiences during the

very earliest parts of life. I think in part what's going to come out of our

work is in a deeper understanding and appreciation for maternal newborn and

child health - a recognition that if we want to truly target to reduce adult

levels of disease we need to think decades before they actually appear.

I think supervising graduate students is important because certainly in

biomedical research the vast majority of what's done is as a result of the input

effort and time of graduate students. Graduate studies in neurobiology is

important because really the brain is the most fascinating organ system in the

body - and of course I'm biased - but when you think about it the brain is truly

the only organ that we have that is more than the sum of its parts.

It really is everything that composes you. Teaching is the reason I came to the

University of Waterloo. Before this I was a government scientist for five years

and while that was interesting I really felt as though something was missing and

what that missin part was is the opportunity to work with students.

I've decided to make the University of Waterloo my academic home because I feel

that they have a very strong student base they have wonderful support for

research and I feel that the School of Public Health and Health Systems in

particular is a very unique place because it has great support for a

multidisciplinary view of health.

Public Health: Online Master's Degree - Duration: 2:39.

Well, one really cool thing about public health is that it's multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary.

Public health students are so varied and are coming from so

many different backgrounds that it was expanding how I was thinking about

public health, not just at a local level, but at a state a national and a global level,

and the interconnectedness of all of these health topics.

The most pronounced characteristic of interactions between the faculty and

staff and the students, to me, was the fact that that you were constantly

challenged and, the same time, encouraged to contribute.

And in the process of reviewing the syllabus,

I asked them to identify,

"what do they expect of me as a professor and an instructor?"

and "what do they expect as a student who is coming to learn in an online environment?"

and "what did they expect of other students who are also learning with them online?"

I had no idea, prior to taking my courses online, that online courses would be so interactive.

Pretty much every class I've taken, we do have online group projects, which you know,

sometimes can be a bit of a challenge, but, at the same time, I think it's beneficial.

That cross-pollination of ideas, of experiences, really gives the

learning experience an enrichment that, I mean, that I enjoy and I'm sure the students enjoy too.

You learn a lot about other cultures, communication, how to deal with different people,

from different walks of life, from different perspectives, from different religions.

The coursework I took during the MPH program

made it so that I was knowledgeable and could speak with

people from a lot of different backgrounds in the public health field.

Now, I work with scientists. I work with health educators, with communication staff.

I work with researchers, with policy folks,

and it takes all of those jobs to make change.

I work in Atlanta, Georgia, at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

as a health communications specialist.

I work at Clay County Public Health Center as an epidemiology specialist.

I'm currently working as an environmental health specialist for the

Boone County Department of Public Health.

So when they started to to see that they

are now agents of change and, then they are now going to be able to do what,

I mean, what they have always desired to do,

that's when I get the most, the most excited.

Dananjaya Hettiarachchi World Champion of Public - Duration: 7:54.

dan ageia heavier achi I see something I see something dhananjaya heavier ah-choo

you and I are not very different from this flower just like this flower is

unique you are unique all of us has something special that makes us as

beautiful do you know what makes you special now the answer to that can be a

little difficult to find because sometimes life has a cruel way taking

out your petals breaking you in two and throwing you into the trash

and when you're broken it's very difficult to feel special

mr. Carter sir my fellow flowers I can remember the first time I Brooke I was

17 years old I had already flunked high school and managed to get myself

arrested now I wasn't afraid of the cops but there was one person I was very

afraid of and that was my mama raise your hand if you have an emotional

mother let me see put them all together you get mama I can

hear her scream outside the police station even the cops were afraid she

came up to me held the iron bars looked into my eyes and I saw a kid coming down

her face now I've seen my mama cried before but mothers cry three types of

Tears tears of joy tears of sorrow and tears of shame and when a son sees a

mother cry is a shame that's a life-changing moment she looked at me

and said son I want you to be a better man that night when I drove home my dad

was waiting for me at home now my dad is a cool dad raise your hand if you have a

cool day put them all together you get my dad

my dad came up to me and said son it's okay you flunked your exams

you already got arrested that's fine you get that from your mother Sal I want you

to start working immediately and I said okay so my dad took me to meet one of

his friends called Sam now Sam was an accountant who had an

accounting firm and had generously decided to make me his personal

assistant and there he was he looked like a teddy bear but this man was

special I looked at him and he looked at me and then he said the most amazing

thing he said son I see something in you but I don't know what it is

if you decide to work with me I can help you find that something and I was like

whoa that's the first time in my whole life somebody has ever told Dizzy's I'm

the ending and I started working for Sam and every day after work he used to tell

me stories about the world about history about culture about philosophy and it

was much more interesting than what I learned in school and I discovered I can

dream and I started dreaming ladies and gentlemen after one year I went back

into high school competed my exams and went into college after successfully

completing college I found a great girl but not a job

I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life have you ever had that problem

and when you lost it's difficult to feel special so I went back to my cool dad

and I said dad I feel lost he said you are like your mother so my dad

introduced me to this strange club that had a strange name with strange people

talking on the first meeting they told me to do something call it table table I

asked it but while I was speaking I see a strange man seated in the back row

humble simple the unfailing quality of kindness in his eyes as soon as I

finished he walked up to me look me dead straight in the eye and said son I see

something in but I don't know what is if you come here twice a month maybe we

can find that something and ladies and gentlemen I discovered I

could speak and I love speaking and that led me to become a teacher I know what

it's like to not have enough money in your bank account I know what it's like

to worry when the bills start coming in and sometimes in the middle of the night

I wake up my beautiful wife and I ask her honey why did you marry me she says

I saw something in

but I still don't know what it is ladies and gentlemen today I am a dream I am a

speaker and I learned the unfailing quality of unconditional love from my

wife I was broken and I've been broken lost and broke many times in my life

but the people in my life were able to reach into the trashcan and make me

whole again if it was up to me I would have never been able to do that and this

is why if you have great people in your life no matter how broke how loss or how

broken you become they can piece you back together ladies and gentlemen when

I look at you I see something else but I don't know what

you
