As a young person who moved to Richmond within the last ten years, I'm always suprised to hear some of the stories told by older Richmonders about what it was like back in the day. What are some of your experiences in decades past that wouldn't be experienced today in Richmond?

I live on Monument around the Devil's Triangle area, and I just saw an article in the Columns (Museum District Association publication) where the owner of the pet grooming place on Belmont said he'd regularly hear gunshots in the 90s. I can't imagine anything like that around here now. I'm interested to know what different areas around town were like before.

On the occasion of the International Day of Human Rights, as a result of the work done by the Humanitarian Law Centers of Serbia and Kosovo, a Record was uploaded online of persons killed or disappeared in connection with the war in Kosovo. The Record contains the personal data of 13,517 victims.

The Record contains the personal data of 13,517 victims, along with the date and place of birth and place of residence until the death or disappearance of every victim, the date and location of the murder or disappearance, as well as information on whether the victim was a civilian or a member of the armed forces.

According to the data, (as of November 7th, 2014), 13,517 people are recorded as having died or disappeared in connection with the war in Kosovo, of whom: 10,792 were Albanians, 2,197 Serbs, and 528 Roma, Bosniaks and other non-Albanians.

Among the fatalities or missing civilians, there are 8,661 Albanians, 1,197 Serbs and 447 Roma, Bosniaks or members of other non-Albanian communities.

The database is the result of years of research based on the statements of witnesses and family members given to the HLC and HLCK, and on data from court documents, forensic reports, records of the armed forces, reports of non-governmental organizations and the media, war diaries and other related adocuments.

The Record, known as the Kosovo Memory Book, is available in:

English

Albanian

Serbian
