Virginia Lawyer Demands U. of Richmond Pay $3.6 Billion After Removing Ancestor’s Name from Law School

A Virginia lawyer is demanding the University of Richmond pay his family $3.6 billion after it removed his ancestor’s name from its law school because the benefactor had owned slaves. Lawyer Robert C. Smith wrote in a letter to the school, “It might be worthwhile for you to require every woke activist to take a course in finance to appreciate those for whom they want to cancel.”
