Gov. Ralph Northam will not attend a racial reconciliation event planned at Virginia Union University on Thursday, acceding to a request from student leaders at the historically black school.
The visit was to be Northam’s first public event in a planned racial reconciliation tour after the Feb. 1 revelation that a racist photograph appeared on his page in his 1984 medical school yearbook.
Northam’s visit was supposed to coincide with VUU’s annual tribute to alumni who protested segregation in Richmond nearly 60 years ago. The president of the school’s student government association, Jamon Phenix, wrote in a letter Monday that Northam’s visit would overshadow the commemoration.

Would be like the devil going to church
He really should resign - just like the Dumbocrats want every Republican to resign....
Drink your own Kool-Aid first you hypocritical dirtbags!
That is a lie, he was asked by the school to not attend. Front page news here in Virginia.
Did he forget his mask
His robe was at the cleaners.
