Bill Cosby Calls On Help From Country

Famous comedian Bill Cosby has called on all Americans to step forward and contribute to a great cause. In a statement released on Friday, Cosby asked all Americans to step forward and do something for the country by donating $8 for the construction of a national slavery museum in Fredericksburg near the Rappahannock River, a region where many Civil War battles were fought. Cosby has personally put forward $1 million towards the project and has called on Americans to help raise the estimated $200 million price tag. This is a project that has been in the works for at least a decade and while previous attempts to get funding as failed, Cosby believes that even a lukewarm response from the country will push them past the $100 million mark that they are trying to raise through public funding.
