Harambee 360 Black Arts Festival Fredericksburg Va, FredericksburgLIVE.com
If you don't know, learn; If you know, teach!
Harambee 360° Experimental Theater, Inc. was founded in 1972 by Clarence Todd at first to educate and introduce area youth to the fine arts as well as provide them an outlet to display their talent. The name Harambee was derived from a Swahili word which means, Let us pull together. Historically, Harambee 360° came at a time when desegregation left creative youth struggling for an outlet. With theater as its primary focus, these youth found an outlet.
During the late 1970's and 80's, Harambee 360° sponsored the Black Arts Festival, Miss Black Teenage World of Fredericksburg Pageants, and Black History Month programs. Since 1990, the organization expanded its efforts by supporting to The Partnership for Academic Excellence program and by sponsoring trips to the National Black Theater Festival in Winston-Salem, NC for area youth.
The Harambee 360° Black Arts Festival is one of the oldest events of its kind in the state. The one-day, family oriented event is a celebration of African-American culture. The Festival, which is free and open to the public, showcases artists, gospel, jazz, and rap musicians, dancers, poets, arts and crafts, food, and lots of family enjoyment.

Best Virginia Mesothelioma Lawyers
Although asbestos use in job sites has ceased substantially since the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) implemented strict regulations in the late 1970s, Virginians still face asbestos exposure via natural mind deposits all across the state. However, most people in Virginia were exposed to the dangerous mineral much more often while working jobs that used asbestos in products, building, machinery, and equipment. In fact, the exposure in Virginia has been so significant that it currently ranks in the top 10 in the United States for the most asbestos-related deaths.
If you have mesothelioma, asbestos-related lung cancer, or asbestosis, you may be eligible for significant compensation. Currently, there is over $30 billion in asbestos trust funds, set up for those who have been diagnosed with an asbestos-related illness. Fill out our form to get a free Financial Compensation Packet.

Occupations Associated with Asbestos in Virginia
As with most other states in the nation, several industries in Virginia were typical in regards to using asbestos prior to the EPA regulations on the use of the dangerous mineral. Paper mills, automotive companies, oil rigs, power plants, chemical corporations, and shipbuilding were some of the more common occupations associated with asbestos use in Virginia.
DuPont Chemical, Richmond, Virginia
One company in particular, DuPont Chemical, was known for its strong use of asbestos use in a plethora of products, clothing, machinery, and equipment. According to the Political Economy Research Institute of the University of Massachusetts (UMASS), DuPont was once an industry that produced the largest amount of pollution in the United States. In 2009, it was listed on the Top 100 Toxic Corporations. Its largest plant, located in Richmond, Virginia, not only exposed its workers to asbestos, but also put residents in direct dangers.
The use of asbestos went on from the 1930s until 1980. Consequently, in 2010, during a lawsuit, a representative of DuPont admitted that the company used asbestos in pipes, burners, boilers, tanks, ovens, and furnaces for decades. In addition, the required clothing provided by DuPont and worn by employees was riddled with asbestos. Several employees were filing lawsuits throughout the years before the 2010 lawsuit after they became ill. In fact, one victim who lost his lawsuit died of mesothelioma in 2008. Most already suspected asbestos was the culprit, but the company initially denied the allegations even though there was evidence stemming back to the 1930s. Even after asbestos was found to be harmful, DuPont didn’t let their employees knos. Other victims were able to settle out of court, while some ended up going to trial. Finally, in 2011, a judged granted a new trial to the man who died in 2008.
Surry Power Station, Isle of Wight, Virginia
Another company known for asbestos, Surry Power Station, put several workers at risk when they were sent to repair a nuclear power plant. Even though safety officials for the power station assured the workers that they wouldn’t be exposed to asbestos, tons of fibers permeated the air when the workers torched old pipes. In fact, one of the workers saw asbestos fibers flying around in the air. Although the amount of asbestos is not known, at least a dozen workers were reported to have asbestos all over their clothes.

Stafford, Virgnia's Falmouth Union Church
Logan Metesh, president of the Falmouth Union Church Preservation Project gives the public a tour of this Falmouth, Va, landmark.
The Trustees of the Union Church Historic Site (TUCHS) are committed to preserving the structure and interpreting its history. There are five trustees who are court-appointed by the Stafford County Circuit Court. The number of trustees is based on the number of trustees in the original 1868 deed of trust that is recorded at Stafford County Courthouse.
It is the mission of the Trustees of the Union Church to return the church to its former status as the iconic symbol and centerpiece of the Falmouth community.
The word Union meant the coming together of the community. As the National Register nomination states, The community built a union church because there were not enough members of one single congregation in the Falmouth community to sustain a church building; therefore, it was utilized by the local Episcopalian, Methodist, Presbyterian, and Baptist congregations. As there were very few Episcopalians in Falmouth, the latter three denominations mainly used the church. Although the understanding was to rotate Sundays, it was not uncommon to have three services following on the same Sunday. Many of the townspeople attended all three services as the church also served as a community gathering place.
Like so many churches in the area, the Union Church served as a military hospital during the Civil War. When Falmouth was occupied by Federal troops, the church served as a billet for the 7th Michigan Infantry Regiment and other units.
A violent rain storm in 1950 severely damaged the roof of the church leading to a collapse of the chancel (rear) and nave (middle), leaving only the narthex (front) intact. The rear of the narthex, as it presently stands, was bricked up in 1954 by the Falmouth community in an attempt to save what was left of the town's old landmark.
The narthex of the former Union Church (seen above) is located on Carter Street in historic Falmouth, Virginia - an unincorporated area in southern Stafford County just north of the Rappahannock River and Fredericksburg, Virginia. Carter Street is situated between modern-day US Route 1 (Cambridge Street/Jefferson Davis Highway) and Virginia Route 218 (Butler Road).

Fredericksburg VA BATH SALTS Guy - 911 call
Taken from a dashcam (The date is wrong. Should be 10/18/13 @ 10:00pm. Intersection of Rt 3 (West) turning lanes onto Salem Church Rd. (South).
When I pulled up and passed him, he was in the middle of the two left turning lanes in the process of taking off his shirt. I was looking behind after I lined up at the red light, and he was rubbing his hands all over his stomach and hair. Then he started walking all weird like he was disoriented while looking in people's cars and saying random things. He started walking up the traffic line yelling things like he was hearing music, but he had no headphones or music playing. When he was next to the van on the right he kept repeatedly singing I just wanna love you, I just wanna love you. I pulled over at a bank to watch him a bit more and was on the phone with the 911 operator. He ended up being taken away.
I removed a few seconds of video to take out my last name and phone number.

SUMMARY
=======
The Battle of Chancellorsville was a major battle of the American Civil War (1861–1865), and the principal engagement of the Chancellorsville Campaign. It was fought from April 30 to May 6, 1863, in Spotsylvania County, Virginia, near the village of Chancellorsville. Two related battles were fought nearby on May 3 in the vicinity of Fredericksburg. The campaign pitted Union Army Maj. Gen. Joseph Hooker's Army of the Potomac against an army less than half its size, General Robert E. Lee's Confederate Army of Northern Virginia. Chancellorsville is known as Lee's perfect battle because his risky decision to divide his army in the presence of a much larger enemy force resulted in a significant Confederate victory. The victory, a product of Lee's audacity and Hooker's timid decision making, was tempered by heavy casualties, including Lt. Gen. Thomas J. Stonewall Jackson. Jackson was hit by friendly fire, requiring his left arm to be amputated; he died of pneumonia eight days later, a loss that Lee likened to losing his right arm. Lee's difficulty in replacing his lost men as well as his inability to prevent the Union Withdrawal effectively have led to his great victory being regarded as a Pyrrhic one.The Chancellorsville Campaign began with the crossing of the Rappahannock River by the Union army on the morning of April 27, 1863. Union cavalry under Maj. Gen. George Stoneman began a long distance raid against Lee's supply lines at about the same time. This operation was completely ineffectual. Crossing the Rapidan River via Germanna and Ely's Fords, the Federal infantry concentrated near Chancellorsville on April 30. Combined with the Union force facing Fredericksburg, Hooker planned a double envelopment, attacking Lee from both his front and rear.
On May 1, Hooker advanced from Chancellorsville toward Lee, but the Confederate general split his army in the face of superior numbers, leaving a small force at Fredericksburg to deter Maj. Gen. John Sedgwick from advancing, while he attacked Hooker's advance with about four-fifths of his army. Despite the objections of his subordinates, Hooker withdrew his men to the defensive lines around Chancellorsville, ceding the initiative to Lee. On May 2, Lee divided his army again, sending Stonewall Jackson's entire corps on a flanking march that routed the Union XI Corps. While performing a personal reconnaissance in advance of his line, Jackson was wounded by fire after dark from his own men close between the lines, and cavalry commander Maj. Gen. J. E. B. Stuart temporarily replaced him as corps commander.
The fiercest fighting of the battle—and the second bloodiest day of the Civil War—occurred on May 3 as Lee launched multiple attacks against the Union position at Chancellorsville, resulting in heavy losses on both sides. That same day, Sedgwick advanced across the Rappahannock River, defeated the small Confederate force at Marye's Heights in the Second Battle of Fredericksburg, and then moved to the west. The Confeder ...
