	"description": "Urge the State Corporation Commission (SCC) to rescind their egregious decision to allow Dominion to run power lines through this generationally African American owned neighborhood on Carver Road. There were three route options, but the SCC chose destroying an historic African American neighborhood. On April 6, the State Corporation Commission (SCC) authorized Dominion Energy Virginia to construct a new 230-kilovolt electric transmission line and a new substation in Prince William County and the town of Haymarket that will follow the Carver Road route. The residents of Carver Road are descendants of freed slaves who have been living there for over five generations and do not want these power lines going through their neighborhood. These power lines will require the state to take African American owned land and will destroy homes, threaten schools, businesses and even the historic Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church founded in 1877. They took our homes and land back in the 1960’s using eminent domain laws which led to the disruption and displacement of thousands of African American families. I say Not Again!!! We have a collective responsibility to honor the past, safeguard those who have descended from freed slaves, protect property that has been in the family for generations and is now being trampled upon by corporate greed. Who are we as a civilization if we allow our history to be destroyed because of misplaced &quot;progress&quot;. This is not progress, but of greed. We request that you rescind your order to use the Carver Road Route in the construction of the Dominion Energy Virginia Transmission Line.",
