BACKGROUND ON THE BRIDGE: The Robert E. Lee Memorial Bridge in Richmond, Virginia carries U.S. Route 1 and U.S. Route 301 across the James River at the Fall Line. The city acquired the original bridge from Richmond Bridge Corp in 1933, and it was named the James River Bridge but was later renamed for the Confederate general.

I AM PETITIONING THAT WE CHANGE THE NAME OF THIS BRIDGE IN THE NAME OF RACIAL JUSTICE. WHO IS WITH ME? #BLACKLIVESMATTER #NOJUSTICENOPEACE
