A great recent screening of @RaisedRazedDoc at the @JSAAHC for the Weldon Cooper Center for Public Service’s LEAD program. @jordyyager @UVA

Had the pleasure this week of screening @RaisedRazedDoc at @JSAAHC for @PiedmontHousing staff alongside @ZoDickerson & Melinda Washington, whose family lived in Vinegar Hill and whose uncle is Charles Barbour, Charlottesville’s first Black Mayor.

At the JSAAHC it's always Black History Month. This Friday CHS's 11th grade English & History classes are coming to the JSAAHC and we need your help to make sure they're not learning on empty stomachs. $15 buys a lunch for a teenager. This is no ordinary day...

🚨 FUNDRAISER ALERT 🚨 • March 8 -- 200 11th graders at @CHSBlackKnights are coming to @JSAAHC for a day of hands-on local history • We're supplying the facts & Pearl Island's got the food Can you help us make it happen? https://t.co/orWJm6HcMo

3/ "...We have a black city manager, a Dialogue on Race and a very nice apology for Vinegar Hill. But Black people continue to be economically, academically and electorally disenfranchised. Cellophane."

2/ She continued: "And you never know our names because you don’t care enough to ask...When City Council has dithered and bickered over roads, water and Mcintire Park...our neighborhoods have been gentrified and a thousand of our population have been displaced..."

1/ Right before City Council voted in 2011 to officially apologize for destroying Vinegar Hill, community organizer & activist Alicia Lugo told Council: “We’re not consulted. We’re not asked for our opinions. We’re cellophane. You look right at us. You look right through us..."

RAISED/RAZED is a documentary that dives deep into the history of Vinegar Hill – Charlottesville, Virginia’s oldest African American neighborhood. TONIGHT at 9. https://t.co/SNRsHAKysy

Have had the most amazing experience spending time with this gentlemen the past few months. Excited to soon share another @Maupintown original film. Thank you @ReelSouthDocs and @myVPM for your support with this production. #Tobacco #LunenburgCounty #Kenbridge #Virginia

Here they’re speaking about the new development’s rendering that has giant murals of Black women on it. There are no current Black commercial tenants in the Dairy Market. There are no Black women on the development staff. (💯Big shout to Amanda & Justin for shining light💯)

“We’re going through a modern day Vinegar Hill.” Ms. Rosia & @ZyahnaB speaking to developer Chris Henry about the proposed expansion of the Dairy Market project along the main corridor between 3 historically Black neighborhoods suffering extreme amounts of Black displacement.

SEI participants watched @RaisedRazedDoc yesterday and had the opportunity to discuss the documentary with filmmaker @ZoDickerson and journalist @jordyyager #AskVIG #localgov #leadsershipdevelopment #UniversityofVirginia #SEI23
