The Richmond bread riot
Richmond, Virginia
![]()
Several hundred women, hungry after two years of blockade and speculation, marched on the shops shouting for bread and began breaking windows. Jefferson Davis climbed onto a wagon, emptied his pockets to the crowd and told them they had fifteen minutes before the militia fired. They dispersed. The papers were asked not to report it.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
