The next woman we will be highlighting is Lucy Frances Simms. Miss Simms was born into slavery in 1856 to the Gray family. She was born here in Harrisonburg, VA and attended Hampton Institute. Upon graduating in 1877, she returned to Harrisonburg to become an educator. She taught over 1,800 students over three different generations during her 56-year teaching career. She was known for taking on a maternal role with her students and treating them with kindness, high expectations, and respect. Miss Simms also took a leadership role in the wider Harrisonburg community. In 1914, she was appointed president of the newly founded Colored Teachers’ Association, a Sunday School teacher for John Wesley Methodist Church, and a committee member of the “Colored Division” of the United War Work Campaign during WWI.

During this week, the Beta Delta Delta Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., will be highlighting lives of women both in our community and nation that have had lives of historical implication culminating with our Women’s Appreciation Banquet on Thursday. We begin with the profile of Charlotte Harris, a Harrisonburg native who was the first woman lynched in Virginia. The lynching took place on March 6th, 1878, the same day she was arrested and taken to Rockingham County Jail. The reason behind her arrest was that she had been accused of instigating the burning of a barn, a crime that had been committed by a young male who was later acquitted. A dozen men with blackened faces told the guards “that if they surrendered her peaceably it would be well for them; if not, they must take the consequences.” Her body hung from a tree approximately 400 yards from the jail until March 9th. The perpetrators were never caught.

Bras will be sent to Belle Mode Intimates, a company that refurbishes them in order to fit breast cancer survivors who’ve had a surgery that makes conventional bras a challenge to wear. New or lightly worn bras are preferable.
