Tameka,
The historic fact of Lincoln walking in Richmond brought back memories of a
dispute over a Lincoln statues (with son Todd) that was to be built in
Richmond, and the objections to it based on the fact that the confederacy
tried to keep Lincoln out of Richmond. Was that statue ever built? Where?
Sorry, my memory wobbles on some details.
Anne
