  • Nominees and Bios
    Nominees for the Virginia Emancipation Memorial Pre‐Emancipation Period 1. Emanuel Driggus, fl. 1645–1685 Northampton Co. Enslaved man who secured his freedom and that of his family members Derived from DVB entry: http://www.lva.virginia.gov/public/dvb/bio.asp?b=Driggus_Emanuel Emanuel Driggus (fl. 1645–1685), an enslaved man who secured freedom for himself and several members of his family exemplified the possibilities and the limitations that free blacks encountered in seventeenth‐century Virginia. His name appears in the records of Northampton County between 1645 and 1685. He might have been the Emanuel mentioned in 1640 as a runaway. The date and place of his birth are not known, nor are the date and circumstances of his arrival in Virginia. His name, possibly a corruption of a Portuguese surname occasionally spelled Rodriggus or Roddriggues, suggests that he was either from Africa (perhaps Angola) or from one of the Caribbean islands served by Portuguese slave traders. His first name was also sometimes spelled Manuell. Driggus's Iberian name and the aptitude that he displayed maneuvering within the Virginia legal system suggest that he grew up in the ebb and flow of people, goods, and cultures around the Atlantic littoral and that he learned to navigate to his own advantage. 2. James Lafayette, ca. 1748–1830 New Kent County Revolutionary War spy emancipated by the House of Delegates Derived from DVB/ EV entry: http://www.encyclopediavirginia.org/Lafayette_James_ca_1748‐1830 James Lafayette was a spy during the American Revolution (1775–1783). Born a slave about 1748, he was a body servant for his owner, William Armistead, of New Kent County, in the spring of 1781.

  • Virginians on the Monument Nominations WORKING DOCUMENT: NOT for DISTRIBUTION
    Virginians on the Monument Nominations WORKING DOCUMENT: NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION 1. The Reverend John J. Jasper, (July 4, 1812‐1901), founder of Sixth Mount Zion Baptist Church, Richmond. First located on Brown’s Island. 2. Gabriel and Gabriel's Rebellion of 1800, which, had the conspiracy been undiscovered, would have been the largest slave insurrection in North America. 3. Lucy Goode Brooks, who, with her husband, Albert Royal Brooks, were dedicated to securing their family and gaining their freedom. After the Civil War ended, Ms. Brooks raised money and mobilized support on behalf of displaced and orphaned African American children by founding the Friends' Asylum for Colored Orphans in 1872, which still operates today as The Friends’ Association for Children. 4. Resistance by enslaved men and women of Fauquier County, such as Anthony Burns, who escaped to Boston in 1854 only to be re‐captured and tried under the Fugitive Slave Act, returned and imprisoned under isolation at Lumpkin's Jail, where he nevertheless found ways to communicate with other inmates about his escape experiences and smuggle out letters to abolitionist allies, ultimately regaining his freedom once again. 5. Margie Jumper‐‐On a Sunday afternoon in 1946, Margie Jumper, an African American housekeeper working in an all‐white neighborhood, boarded a crowded — and segregated —Roanoke streetcar to go home. The streetcar was crowded. White passengers sat in the middle and front of the trolley. African American passengers sat in the back. If there was no room to sit, the African American passengers stood. In that day and age, Mrs. Jumper was not allowed to sit where she wanted.

    4 “The Dream Is Lost” Henry Marsh and Black Governance in an Era of White Political Resistance On Friday, August 20, 1982, members of the Crusade and a handful of Richmond’s most prominent African American political figures assembled for a private retreat at the Roslyn Conference Center in Henrico County, Virginia. Shortly after Ellen D. Pearson called the meeting to order, the state director of the NAACP, Jack Gravely, interjected, “What the hell is going on in Richmond? What is the Crusade doing”? Gravely would not have asked that question in 1977. Had he, not a member in atten- dance would have struggled to answer the question. Even fewer would have scrambled to defend the Crusade’s legacy. Yet in 1982 the Crusade called the closed session to address a crisis of black political leadership. It appeared that African American city council newcomer, Dr. Roy West, had clandestinely negotiated with white members of the city council to appoint himself mayor. West’s appointment to the mayoralty was the big- gest threat the Crusade had faced since the annexation of Chesterfield County—and few people saw West coming. Roslyn became a referendum on the future of the black body politic. The city’s district system may have ensured a five-to-four BMC, but it did little to safeguard the character of candidates. Majority–minority districts did even less to shield black com- munities from intensifying economic vulnerability or impede the persis- tence of white obstructionism. Shortly after the election of the BMC, Atlanta mayor Maynard Jackson commented, “The politics of Richmond are now controlled by Afro-Americans, [but its] economics [are] still con- trolled by white Americans.

Peeples. Ed, thanks very much for sparing some time to talk to me. P: Delighted. W: Ed, what I would like to do to begin with is just ask you to fill in some background information for us. Give us a little bit of a biographical sketch of yourself, and tell us briefly how you got to come to Richmond, and then we will pick up the Virginia Council on Human Relations and your activism here. P: The action in me coming to Richmond was because I was born a few blocks from here. My father had moved back from South Carolina and had gotten married. My mother and he came here to take a job in the grocery business, with a grocery chain which some of his relatives owned. That was 1935 I was born, and I was educated in public schools here and also went to college here at what is now Virginia Commonwealth University. It was called the Richmond Professional Institute at the time. W: What was your major? P: At first, I was just going to go to technical school and be a draftsman. Once I got here, I was offered the opportunity to play basketball for a small scholarship, and so I had to find a major. They told me that athletes always majored in phys[ical] ed [ucation], so I have a phys ed degree.

Cover photo credits: EIRNS/Stuart Lewis and Philip Ulanowsky INTRODUCTION For the Exoneration of the Most Beautiful Soul in American History by Helga Zepp-LaRouche There is no one in the history of the United States to my knowledge, for whom there is a greater discrep- ancy between the image crafted by the neo-liberal establishment and the so-called mainstream media, through decades of slanders and co- vert operations of all kinds, and the actual reality of the person himself, than Lyndon LaRouche. And that is saying a lot in the wake of the more than two-year witch hunt against President Trump. The reason why the complete exoneration of Lyn- don LaRouche is synonymous with the fate of the United States, lies both in the threat which his oppo- nents pose to the very existence of the U.S.A. as a republic, and thus for the entire world, it system, the International Development Bank, which and also in the implications of his ideas for America’s fu- he elaborated over the years into a New Bretton Woods ture survival.
