Since Easter, 8 RPS students have been shot, 4 of whom have died. Since 2019, 169 juveniles in Richmond - the overwhelming majority of whom were RPS students - have been shot. This needs to stop. I’m begging everyone who has any connection to our young people: wrap them in love.
“Multiple offers by Historic Richmond…to provide an independent assessment of the building have also gone unaddressed, according to Cyane Crump, Historic Richmond’s executive director.” @FreePressRVA richmondfreepress.com/news/2024/apr/…
