National Slavery Museum Fails to Report on $1mil Loan

Former Virginia Governor Doug Wilder’s National Slavery Museum has failed to report on the $1 million loan given to him by the City of Fredericksburg:

“The information available at this point is insufficient to say whether the city’s money has been well spent or not,” Fortune said. “Time will tell.”

Museum officials have repeatedly put off requests from The Free Lance-Star for interviews, and phone calls and e-mails with questions have received no response.

“I guess we’re just going to have to say ‘No comment’ right now,” James Damron said last week. Damron is Foster’s assistant.

Four of the museum’s six board members contacted did not return calls.
