Smith ABSTRACT The Virginia State Constitution of 1869 mandated that public school education be open to both black and white students on a segregated basis. In the city of Richmond, Virginia the public school system indeed offered separate school houses for blacks and whites, but public schools for blacks were conducted in small, overcrowded, poorly equipped and unclean facilities. At the beginning of the twentieth century, public schools for black students in the city of Richmond did not change and would not for many decades.

  • SPRING 2013 400 Years of Richmond History in Only 50 Objects
    SPRING 2013 400 Years of Richmond History in Only 50 Objects Known by some local citizens as “Richmond’s Attic,” the Valentine Richmond History Center has recently gone global while remaining local with a new exhibition, “A History of Richmond in 50 Objects” (RVA50). Inspired by and paying homage to “A History of the World in 100 Objects,” the groundbreaking partnership of the British Museum and BBC Radio 4 in 2010 that focused on world history through the eyes of one hundred experts, this exhibition continues the dialogue in a way that is uniquely Richmond and was curated by David B. Voelkel, the new Elise H. Wright Curator of General Collections. He used this project as an opportunity to delve into the museum’s holdings of more than 1.5 million objects. RVA50 explores the history of Richmond, Virginia, through a selection of objects from across the general, archives, and costume and textile collections. Creating a balanced exhibition led to many curatorial moments of decision as to inclusion and exclusion as one by one various possible museum artifacts were unearthed from their storage locations for examination and consideration. Each object had to compete for one of the limited 50 spaces not only in historical Continued on page 2 Four Hundred Years... Continued from page 1 significance, but in size, form, and type. The designation of the #1 object is on the historical chronology rather than a ranking of “importance” – a murky place in any instance. From #1 - an 1819 imprint of John Smith’s 1624 Map of Virginia to #50 - the rainbow flag that flew at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond in 2011, RVA50 examines how objects contain layers of meaning that are both personal and public.
