I know it has been mentioned, but don’t know of a separate post here for Virginia’s Civil Rights monument.
I look forward to seeing it when I am Richmond.
This $2.6 million memorial is worth every penny. It’s exactly what the Commonwealth should do to elevate and perpetuate the best of our civilization. From one generation to the next.
I’d love to know what was it in the education, experience, family or faith of Barbara Jones that lead her – at age 16 – to lead the walkout at Moton High School in 1951. How remarkable a young woman.
What a proud legacy for all Virginians.
