@councilofdc.bsky.socialDied on this date in 1779: Brigadier General Casimir Pulaski. Revolutionary War hero, savior of George Washington, “father of the American cavalry,” one of only 8 *ever* honorary citizens of the US, & namesake of our neighboring Pulaski Park
@councilofdc.bsky.socialWe are deeply saddened by the loss of Talib Shakir, a dedicated public servant who was tackling one of the most critical and challenging jobs in government. What a terrible tragedy.
@councilofdc.bsky.socialA very Happy Birthday to At-Large Councilmember Christina Henderson!
@councilofdc.bsky.socialOn this date in 1806, Benjamin Banneker passed away at the age of 74. He played a key role in surveying the original boundaries of the District of Columbia. (The good, pre-retrocession boundaries, just to be clear.)
@councilofdc.bsky.socialThis is clearly not acceptable
@councilofdc.bsky.socialIn this date in 1987, the Go-Go Live at the Capital Centre concert took place. The sold-out event was a milestone in local go-go history.
