Originally published at the advent of China’s Cultural Revolution, the “Little Red Book” contains hundreds of quotes from then-Chairman Mao. Beyond representing the archetype of communist propaganda, the work was widely used by young revolutionaries to justify “purges” of anyone short of completely devoted to...

Surveillance footage shows Daryl Doles, 50, alleged attacking two Asian women with a cinder block at a Baltimore liquor store.
Doles is charged with two counts of aggravated assault, the report said. It’s unclear if hate crime charges are being sought.
