podcast. With this show we're going to pick right back up with our look at what

happened in 1863. We looked at January through March last time, so with this

episode we'll start off with, yes, you guessed it, April.

During the war, civil unrest occurred with some frequency in the Confederacy, and came mostly

from white women because of severe shortages of and inflated prices for everyday necessities.

Beginning in mid- 1862, the civilian population of the South, particularly those living in cities and towns, began to suffer from food and clothing

shortages.

In Richmond, by April 1863, due to rampant inflation, it takes more than 10 times as much to feed a family for a week

than it did just three years ago.

On April 2nd, 1863, after meeting the previous night at a local Baptist church, hundreds of

angry women from Richmond and the surrounding area gather in Capitol Square at the

equestrian statue of George Washington and then march over to the

Governor's Mansion.

Denied a meeting with Governor John Letcher, the women returned to the statue.

Accounts of what happened next vary.
