graphic design, special event and project management, promotions and
fundraising. Additional staff support is provided by the Richmond City
Administration through the Richmond Department of Economic Development, which

Over
the years, Richmond City Council Slave Trail Commission has worked on a number
of important projects, which have included:
·
2011
Unveiling
of 17 Richmond Slave Trail Markers located throughout the Shockoe Bottom area
of Richmond, marking sites that help tell the historic journey, human impact,
and the role Richmond played in the tragic history of slavery.
The
Richmond Slave Trail Markers will serve to recognize the regrettable time in
our nation’s history when parts of the United States allowed the enslavement of
fellow human beings and an estimated 8 percent of U.S. families owned slaves
just before the U.S. Civil War. The site of the event and location of one of
the 17 markers, Lumpkin's Slave Jail was the largest slave-holding facility in
operation in Richmond, Virginia from 1840 until the end of the U.S. Civil War
in 1865. Prior to that time, Richmond was home to the largest domestic slave
export business in the United States. Richmond was liberated when the
Confederate Army surrendered the city, which was used as the Capital of the
Confederacy, on April 3, 1865.
Following shortly after the end of the U. S. Civil War, which ended in Virginia on April 9, 1865, the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States of America Constitution was adopted on December 6, 1865. This amendment officially abolished slavery. A precursor for this Amendment was the Emancipation Proclamation, an Executive Order signed by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863, which proclaimed the freedom of people living in slavery in the 10 states, then under Confederate control in rebellion against the United States of America.

Approved
by the United States Congress on January 31, 1865, the Thirteenth Amendment was
signed and approved by President Abraham Lincoln on February 1, 1865. The
Constitutional Amendment was then sent to state legislatures for ratification
and, on December 18, 1865, was officially ratified, therefore officially abolishing slavery in the United
States of America.
The
13th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America reads as
follows:
Amendment XIII
Section 1.
Neither
slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have
been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject
to their jurisdiction.
Section
2.
Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

of the Richmond Slavery Reconciliation Statute plaza and erection of the
statue. This project was part of a global initiative placing three statues in
three countries. Dedicated to slavery reconciliation, the installation of the
statue represents nearly 10 years of work between the City of Richmond,
Virginia, USA (North America), Liverpool, England (Europe), and the Republic of
Benin (Africa). A statue was erected in Liverpool in 1989 and the Republic of
Benin in August 2005.
·
2006
Lumpkin’s
Slave Jail Archaeological Assessment
Lumpkin's Slave Jail was the largest slave holding facility in operation
in Richmond, Virginia from 1840 until the end of the U.S. Civil War in 1865.
During that time, Richmond was home to the largest domestic slave export
business in the United States. Owned by Robert Lumpkin, the jail was a place
that tens
of thousands of African men, women and children were "stored" before
being transported to slave owners living in states where slavery was legal.
Following Lumpkin's death shortly after the Civil war, his common law widowed
wife Mary Lumpkin, who was African-American, inherited the estate. In 1867, she
leased the jail to Reverend Nathaniel Colver, who established a school for
freed slaves at the site. Founded by the American Baptist Home Missionary
Society and the National Theological Institute, the school grew into what is
now Virginia Union University.
·
2003
Acquisition
of Richmond Slavery Reconciliation Statue. For three quarters of the 18th
Century, Virginia (North America), Liverpool, England (Europe), and the
Republic of Benin (Africa) represented one of the largest global commercial
trade triangles of enslaved Africans. Liverpool's shipbuilding industry
provided the vessels that sailed to the Kingdom of Dahomey, now the Republic of
Benin, where Africans were loaded on ships and transported to the Americas,
with Richmond, Virginia being one of the major recipients.
