Tasha 'Freedom' McBride - Poet, Police Officer and now Photographer

From Syracuse to the university to Albany to the streets of Baltimore, Tasha ‘Freedom’ McBride has made a difference. She was part of Art Night in Schenectady, shown inside the Schenectady County office buildings, first two floors, in a photo exhibit entitled “An Artist's Perspective: Defying a Broken System in celebration of Black History Month.

For the first time, McBride's photos will be displayed as part of an essay entitled “Broken Concrete.”

She was the first featured artist of the Schenectady County Human Rights Commission.

I called Tasha ‘Freedom’ McBride at her home in Maryland to learn about her journey as an artist and community officer with the City of Baltimore.
