“A lot of times the City [of Alexandria, VA.] covers up history




“A lot of times the City [of Alexandria, VA.] covers up history.  The Recreation Department [staff] knew exactly what they did and wants to move forward but we aren’t fools.  We want to preserve history.  The city came in and wiped-out the [Fort Ward] community.  I have a lot of relatives buried up here.  We want to make sure the city does the right thing.  You really can’t compensate us.”  

Remarks by Joyce Casey Sanchez at the July 7, 2012
