Spurred on by an organization’s interest in the stories behind those we see every day at our city’s intersections, By Any Means Necessary contextualizes this sector against the history of “hustle” or gig economies in the Black community. It provides interviews with those who participate, allowing for first-person accounts of the “why” behind squeegeeing and presenting the concept that the reasons and the participants are not monolithic. The screening of By Any Means Necessary will be followed by a panel discussion – moderated by Terri Lee Freeman, executive director, The Reginald F. Lewis Museum – with Shauntee Daniels, executive director, the Baltimore National Heritage Area; Jason Bass, Director of Culture and Impact, Hotel Revival; and Baltimore City Deputy Mayor Faith Leach.
