Cambridge Men Working On Bringing Harriet Tubman Statue To Ghana | |
CAMBRIDGE, Md. - Two business owners in the City of Cambridge are planning on taking a Harriet Tubman statue all the way to the African country of Ghana.
Michael Brian and Jermaine Anderson, who own Art Br 2.0, will journey to Ghana to meet with the king and queen of the Adamorobe village, in October.
Brian says the tribe is mostly Harriet Tubman descendant's and he will be coronated for his work to bring a statue of Tubman.
Plans for the statue will look very similar to the one that stands at the courthouse in Cambridge. But, with a twist.
Brian says, "My rendition of the statue will be to have Harriet on one side and another hero on the back side and their joining hands holding up the globe with Africa showing their unity of the herons that have helped to liberate Africa. And at the foot, all of liberators who've fought for African Americans.

New Regional Hospital Takes Big Step Forward: Certificate of Need Now on the Books | |
University of Maryland Shore Regional Health’s plans for construction of a new Regional Medical Center (RMC) in Easton have moved a step forward as hospital officials have received notice that the Maryland Health Care Commission has docketed the application for the project’s Certificate of Need (CON).
MHCC provided public notice of the docketing in the Maryland Register on August 11th, which initiated a 30-day window for public comment. As of today, no comments have been posted, and the CON application is now ready for MHCC’s review and anticipated approval in the coming months.
Docketing of the application not only keeps the project moving forward as is required by MHCC’s procedural regulations, but also allows MHCC to gather any supplemental information needed to render a decision.
The total projected cost of the new Shore Regional Medical Center is $550 million.
