There, they’ll be joined by Rep. Don McEachin, D-4th, Richmond Mayor Levar Stoney and Richmond City Councilwoman Cynthia Newbille.

Four Democratic leaders in the General Assembly and Stoney also have said they would not participate in the events after learning of Trump’s planned attendance.

They specifically referenced Trump’s recent comments about a group of female, minority members of Congress this month.

In a tweet, Trump proposed that the four women “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came.” Only one of the four congresswomen was born outside the United States, and all are U.S. citizens.

“The absence of the VLBC will send the message that the members do not condone the president’s participation and all that is represented by his attending this commemoration,” said Sen. Jennifer McClellan, D-Richmond. “Those who have chosen to attend and remain silent are complicit in the atrocities that he incites.”

McClellan said the caucus will focus its attention Tuesday on “those individuals who fought for a more just, equitable and inclusive democracy.”

Del. Lamont Bagby, D-Henrico, who is chairman of the caucus, said there is no shortage of information on “what the last 400 years have looked like for minority communities in our country,” adding, “As black leaders in the legislature, the [caucus] has a responsibility to ensure that the next 400 years empower and unify our commonwealth and country.”
