The Shame And Corruption of Mercy Canyon And Redding California Shasta County Officials

 


You may remember seeing a bench dedicated to the ABC Grocery store at the entrance to Mercy Canyon after the recent horrific homeless man was murdered, sadly not the first.

There Redding shoved their black community including the ABC grocery store, a bar called Jomars place, and I believe a laundry....All black.

They were treated very poorly of course, as perceived by many as sub human being black. Growing up in Redding unfortunatly, sadly in those years  it was known to many as "Coon Canyon"


Facinating how the perceived marginalized sub human homeless are forced to take shelter there today.

Now what most people don't know is the owner of an establishment there Leo Coleman is still alive today with im sure valuable history, photo gems never before seen of the store, and wonderful stories of the black community that once lived there.



Oh and by the way Mr Coleman lost his son , hung in Anderson California


There is a sad legacy of racism here in Redding California going back for decades
