This Saturday, we'll unveil the statue honoring Marion Barry. Did you know his first apartment in DC was in #OurWard5 & #BloomingdaleDC? He first lived above the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee's DC offices at 107 Rhode Island Ave NW. @snccdigital #Ward5BlackHistory pic.twitter.com/B4R2GXbHCw
