Virginia Honors D'Angelo With State Flag and Homegrown Tribute
D’Angelo’s legacy returned home to Richmond, Virginia, on Saturday, October 10, as his eldest brother, Luther Archer, and youngest son accepted a Virginia state flag honoring the late artist. The moment unfolded at the Richmond Folk Festival during “Soul of the City: Richmond Celebrates D’Angelo,” a 90-minute tribute held just ahead of the one-year anniversary of the neo-soul pioneer’s death from pancreatic cancer. COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess. Dr. Sesha Joi Moon, representing Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s office, presented the Archer family with the flag, which had flown at half-staff above the Virginia State Capitol.

Luther said he had attended D’Angelo tributes at the Grammys and BET Awards, but the Richmond performance carried a different kind of weight . “I’m

New data shows just how fierce the competition is in our backyard. State of play: The Pennsylvania-based convenience store giants have expanded their footprints across multiple states, but they share just 21 interstate exits, according to new data from road-trip app Pit Stop shared with Axios. Nearly half — 10 — are in Virginia, including eight along I-95 between Petersburg and Woodbridge, Pit Stop creator Jake Boyles tells Axios. And three of those shared exits are just south of Richmond, around Petersburg and Colonial Heights. What they're saying: "The rivalry's real DMZ starts basically at Richmond's back door," says Boyles. The Sheetz/Wawa divide around Richmond - mapped.

Sheetz has just eight exits without Wawa, per an Axios analysis of Pit Stop's data. Wawa also has roughly 50 locations in the broader Richmond region, about twice as many as Sheetz , per an Axios review of
