| 10 The Task Force recommends establishment of a commission to research disparate impacts of crime and crime-control with linkages to the history and legacy of slavery in Maryland and to make appropriate recommendations. The Task Force views this as a matter of justice and social urgency. 13. Permanent Monuments of Commemoration The Task Force recommends establishment of a commission to advise the Governor and General Assembly on the establishment of official State monuments associated with slavery and its legacy. 14. Implications for Further Study and Action The Task Force believes that "The Commission to Coordinate the Study., Commemoration^ and Impact of Slavery's History and Legacy in Maryland" can best achieve its goals in working with a number of agencies and departments within State government, as well as others, but with its own budget and staff, and that it should have no duties in the running of any museum or similar institution that could be a distraction. The Task Force operated with an understanding that slavery and its legacy are issues affecting all Marylanders. |
