    Imagine if the blacks wasn't forced off their land what that land would be worth today? Millions

    I didn't know this. I lived 5 minutes away from Dulles in Sterling, VA for 12 years (from Miami, FL). 😮
    As crazy as it may seem, I felt connected to Loudoun county. Didn't want to live any place else, except Saudi Arabia) where I've been living for more than a decade now.
    Whenever I return to the states, I always fly into Dulles and stay at least a week, go to Florida, then return to Virginia and fly back overseas.

    So they want to honor the residents now 65 years later? What an afterthought.

    They stole those people’s properties and their lives. Sad very sad and to add insult to injury they’re going to display photos of what they took from them. Disgusting!
